Chorus

Cruel Girl

Why you gotta treat me like a fool, girl?

Bring me down with everything you do, girl?

Break my faithful little heart in two, girl?

Cruel girl

Verse 1

I know that I should go, I should walk away.

But when I think of how things were only yesterday

It makes me stay

Pre-chorus

You were so sweet when we first met

Now you're so bad to me I just can't forget

Chorus 2

You're a cruel girl

I'll do anything you wanna do, girl

I'll believe that every lie is true, girl

I could never settle for a new girl

Cruel Girl

Verse 2

What keeps me standing here, staying by your side?

When the way you treat me girl only hurts my pride

I can't lie

I can't forget the words you said

You used to hold me now you hurt me instead

Bridge

Everytime I walk away I end up running back to you

It's true

Other girls would treat me better

Why you gotta be so cruel?

So cruel . . . ooooo

Solo

Pre-chorus

You were so sweet when we first met

But then your pretty face went straight to your head

Chorus 3

Oh, you're a cruel girl

No one else can hurt me like you do, girl

But you know I'll always be your fool, girl

I could never settle for a new, girl

Cruel giiiirrrrrl!

You're so cruel

You're so cruel

Just don't ever tell me what we're through

Oh, you're so cruel.
