Lyrics
Now if you want
Something to play with
Go out and find yourself a toy
Cause little boy my time is too expensive
And I'm not a little boy
So if you are serious
Don't play with my heart
It makes me furious
But if you want me to love you
You know I will
You know I will
Tell it like it is
Don't be ashamed
Let your conscience be your guide
I know deep down inside of me
I believe you love me
So forget your foolish pride
Life is too short to have sorrow
You may be here today and gone tomorrow
You might aswell get what you want
So go on and please
(Tell it like it is)
I'm nothing to play with
Go and find yourself a toy
Tell it like it is
Tell it like it is
Like it is
Writer(s): George Davis, Lee Diamond
