Words like love and happiness Never seem to stand up baby When you put them to the test, yeah You say that you're a poet That your love's a work of art But you can't play love by numbers babe You gotta play it all by heart Chorus: Baby, baby. baby, baby It happens all the time How you play me, play me, play me Playing with my mind Baby, baby, baby, baby You're making me go crazy And if you call that love Then love should be a crime Honesty Bites the dust Every time I hear you saying Love is never lust, yeah Did you read it in a book Did you see it in a magazine Do you think that I'm some new age fool Do you think I'm so naive Chorus Love, Love, Love, Love lahaaah Love should be a crime Love should be a crime You & me Suddenly We got nothing to say But the words get in the way Baby baby, baby, baby It happens all the time How you play me, play me, play me Playing with my mind Baby baby baby baby You're making me go crazy And if you call that love Then all it was Was a pocket full of nothing But a suicidal gun If you call that love Then love should be a crime
