Lyrics

Ooh yeah, ooh yeah You got me cornered, there's no getting out alive So wait a minute, woman, I need to switch out that light We're a bad match, babe, you never know what's good for you There's somethin' not right, I'm gonna tell you what to do For 24 hours, you been comin' on so strong Baby, I'm gettin' nervous, and pretty soon I'm gonna prove you wrong I've gotta tell it like it is - I know it's down to me Can't go on like this - our love is history I'm gonna burn this bridge - you just wait and see Tell it like it is - uh huh, hey Face to face, a day I will never forget Well I was beggin' for your love, you said you're not ready yet Hey we've come a long way, babe, there's nothin', nothin' I won't do And well I warn you tonight, my love is hot, I'm comin' for you For 24 hours, you've been puttin' me on Maybe I'm gettin' nervous, and pretty soon I'm gonna prove you wrong I've gotta tell it like it is - I know it's down to me Can't go on like this - our love is history I'm gonna burn this bridge - just you wait and see I'm gonna tell it like it is - uh huh, hey (Solo) For 24 hours, you been comin' on so strong Maybe I'm nervous, pretty soon I'm gonna prove you wrong I'm gonna tell it like it is - I know it's down to me I can't go on like this - watch your step, it's history Gonna burn this bridge - you just wait and see Tell it like it is - yeah uh huh Tell it like it is - wait and see Can't go on like this - our love is history I'm gonna burn this bridge - I'm gonna burn you down I'm gonna tell it like it is - I'm waitin', I'm waitin' Tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it like it is No, you know it's still down to me I said tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it - tell it like it is You're history You've gotta tell it, tell it, tell it!
