Lyrics for Senselessly Cruel

When I was a poor young boy at school Girls like you always played me for a fool But now, a time has come to lay to waste The theory people have of getting an acquired taste You treated me - Oh, so, so senselessly cruel Oh baby, you were so senselessly cruel From the beginnings I suspected the worst And you didn't disappoint me It was just that you were the first But now, I wouldn't let you touch me If you were within a foot And girl, I'm never ever gonna get hurt 'Cause you treated me - Oh, so senselessly cruel Oh now, so senselessly cruel (Oh, so senselessly cruel) (Oh, so senselessly cruel)
