Once upon a time I thought
“What’s the one thing I haven’t got?”
There’s not a single thing in this world I couldn’t buy
That’s when a gentleman caught my eye
Once ou twice we went around
But now I’ll tell toi the thing I’ve found
toi shouldn’t make your déplacer until toi know the price
Because gentlemen aren’t nice
Just because I won’t agree to take his arm
And I occasionally forget his name
He likes to call inclemency what I call charm
But I know they’re all the same
I think I’ve realized my first mistake
When he cried that his cœur, coeur would break
I would have thought that I was worth the sacrifice
But gentlemen aren’t nice
Just because I leave him all alone for days
And go about with others of his kind
He dares complain about my evil ways
And drive me out of my — out of my mind
What I relate is hard to bear
I only endure it so that I might spare toi ladies
I’m not known for my good advice
But gentlemen aren’t
So agreeable
l’amour ain’t a paradise
And if I told toi once, I won’t tell toi twice
Gentlemen aren’t nice
Gentlemen aren’t nice
“What’s the one thing I haven’t got?”
There’s not a single thing in this world I couldn’t buy
That’s when a gentleman caught my eye
Once ou twice we went around
But now I’ll tell toi the thing I’ve found

Because gentlemen aren’t nice
Just because I won’t agree to take his arm
And I occasionally forget his name
He likes to call inclemency what I call charm
But I know they’re all the same
I think I’ve realized my first mistake
When he cried that his cœur, coeur would break
I would have thought that I was worth the sacrifice

Gentlemen aren’t nice
Gentlemen aren’t nice
toi think that you’ll get by
toi will die
toi will cry
When toi think that you’ll survive
Just don’t try
Run and hide
My eyes are hollow like my soul
toi think that you’ll get by
toi will die
toi will cry
When toi think that you’ll survive
Just don’t try
Run and hide
My eyes are hollow like my soul
Just as I was walking by
My soul died
My cœur, coeur cried
When toi think that you’ll survive
Just don’t try
Run and hide
My eyes are hollow like my soul
So many times I ask myself
So many times I wonder why
So many times I ask myself
So many times I wonder why
toi think that you’ll get by
toi will die
toi will die
When toi think that you’ll survive
Just don’t try
Run and hide
My eyes are hollow like my soul
My eyes are hollow like my soul
Hollow like my soul
toi think that you’ll get by
toi will die
toi will cry
When toi think that you’ll survive
Just don’t try
Run and hide
Run and hide
Run and hide
Don’t make me chase you
I’ll warn you, I will
Just to embrace you
I’ll get my fill
So be silent, be still
Be hopeful, be brave
I only want toi more
When toi misbehave
I know I’ve a dit that before
It’s your touch I crave
So be silent, be still
You, I adore
Must toi ignore
It doesn’t matter what toi say anymore
This is our night
Why must we fight?
Don’t close the door
Be careful, my dear
If you’re not nice
I’ll give toi reason to fear
But I’ll think twice
Don’t pretend toi don’t hear
Just be silent, be still
You, I adore
Must toi ignore
It doesn’t matter what toi say anymore
This is our night
Why must we fight?
Don’t close the door
Now listen to me
I’d rather tie toi up
Than let toi go free
toi must be kind, my dear
I think you’ll agree
These are the words you’ve sung to me
So there’s no hope toi see
For still inside I will never be
