To believe or not to believe
That is the question
It just takes a street degree
You've lied your last lie and I've cried my last cry
I'm out the door, baby
There's other fish in the sea
Girl, make a list
Go out and find yourself a new plaything
Girl, you need a trip
'Cause he's not worth the misery and pain
Just remember how he would tell you lies
And then pretend that everything is so sweet
Why should you sacrifice if you're not satisfied?
He's just a canine running 'round in heat (woof)
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
Oh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh (oh, oh, ooh)
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
(Treat ya, treat ya) oh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, ooh
Girl, you must resist
Don't let him squirm his way into your heart
No
Girl, I must insist
You've got to stop the fool before he starts
Just remember how he was so untrue
For all the tacky things he did to you
No need to signify, 'cause he's not worth your time
You need to find someone that's true to you
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
Oh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
(Oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh) oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
(Treat ya)
Baby, don't be sad, no (oh)
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh
To believe or not to believe
That is the question
It just takes a street degree
You've lied you last lie and I've cried my last cry
I'm out the door, baby
There's other fish in the sea
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Cute, cute, cute, cute
Hey Deele, sing
To believe or not to believe
That is the question
It just takes a street degree
You've lied your last lie and I've cried my last cry
I'm out the door, baby
There's other fish in the sea
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
Oh, oh, ooh
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
(Oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh) oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ooh
Girlfriend, how could you let him treat you so bad?
(Treat ya)
Baby, don't be sad, no (oh)
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
Oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh
Don't let him put you down (girlfriend)
Girl, he's been messing around
(How could you let him treat you so bad?)
You've been used, abused
So baby, make your move (oh)
You've learned your lesson now (girlfriend)
So turn this hurt around
(You know you were the best he ever had)
You ain't no fool, it's no use
You've got to cut him loose (oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh)
Girlfriend, yeah, how could you let him treat you so bad?
(Treat ya, treat ya)
Oh (oh, oh, ooh)
Girlfriend, you know you were the best he ever had
(You know you were the best he ever had) oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh
Don't let him put you down (girlfriend)
Girl, he's been messing around
(How could you let him treat you so bad?)
You've been used (been used), abused (abused)
So baby, make your move (oh)
You've learned your lesson now (girlfriend)
So turn this hurt around
(You know you were the best he ever had)
You ain't no fool, it's no use
You've got to cut him loose (oh, oh, oh, ooh, oh)
Girlfriend, yeah, how could you let him treat you so bad?
