Don't mess with what you don't [Eb] like, from the moment [Bb] before.
They [Db] make a big deal of it, the way you think, got you down and [Bb] finicky.
They tell you you [F] can do your very own thing, [Eb] ooh, but try Pete, [Bb] see the hurt it brings, yeah.
Soon little [F] boys learn to be ashamed of tears they [Eb] cry.
If a girl wants [D] to football, someone will throw in an after [Eb]-white.
[Bb] Soon little boys, [Bbm] you're on the line, little little ass, keep on messin' with your [Eb] mind.
[Bb] [Db]
Don't mess with what you don't [Bb] like.
Look at [F] the kind of lawyer, whom you turn to when in [Eb] need.
