From the recording WHAT'S A GUY GOTTA DO?

Lyrics

FLIRT RHYMES 
 
You say you’ll go with me, 
And then you say you won’t. 
You say that you love me, 
And I find out you don’t. 
 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
 
You say I’m “off the hook” 
And then say, “Hold the phone!” 
You read me like a book, 
But now you read alone. 
 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
 
You say I’m “outta sight” 
And then you disappear. 
You think you look all right 
In my rear-view mirror. 
 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
 
You tell me to my face 
I’ve got it going on; 
When I pick up the pace, 
You’re going, going, gone. 
 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.” 
I guess that’s why “flirt” 
Rhymes with “dirt” and “skirt” 
And “hurt.”
