  • I, I can see, that you got your sights on him I'd like to say
    Well I, well I've been there done that
    You're a game he'll play, yeah
    Well I know what he has you don't want none of that, nooo

    Put your dreams away, he's never gonna change
    Go on and walk away, 'cause he's messed up.
    You're gonna figure out he'll only bring you down
    Go on and walk away, 'cause he's messed up.
    I wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot pole (no!)
    Now that I know all the things I know
    He's never gonna change. Go on and walk away.
    (Yeah, yeah) Yeah, 'cause he's messed up

    Look in his eyes
    You get caught in all the bullshit and the lies
    Can be cruel, 'cause he doesn't play by anybody's rules.
    Yeah, well he'll take, never give, 'cause it's all about him

    Ooh!

    Put your dreams away, he's never gonna change
    Go on and walk away, 'cause he's messed up.
    You're gonna figure out he'll only bring you down
    Go on and walk away, 'cause he's messed up.
    I wouldn't touch him with a 10 foot pole (no!)
    Now that I know all the things I know
    He's never gonna change. Go on and walk away.
    (Yeah, yeah) Yeah, 'cause he's messed up

    He won't care 'bout anybody else
    No he only sees himself

    So put your dreams away, he's never gonna change
    Go on and walk away, 'cause he's messed up.
    You're gonna figure out he'll only bring you down
    Yeah, 'cause he's messed up.
    I wouldn't touch him with a ten foot pole (no!)
    Now that I know all the things I know
    He's never gonna change. Go on and walk away.
    (Yeah, yeah) Yeah, 'cause he's messed up Writer/s: ALYSSA BAILLIE BONAGURA, JO DEE MESSINA
