I barely had to change this one.
Cruel To Be Kind
Oh, I just can’t pay another meds bill.
Though you say you’re my friend, I’m at my wits’ end.
You say your love is bona fide
But that don’t coincide
With the things that you do.
And when I ask you to be nice, you say
(Chorus)
We’ve got to be cruel to be kind, in the right measure.
Cruel to be kind, it’s the very design.
Cruel to be kind, means that we love you.
Baby, we’ve got to be cruel to be kind.
Well, I do my best to understand, Paul.
But I’m still mystified, and I want to know why.
I pick myself up off the ground, to have you
Knock me back down, again and again.
And when I ask you to explain, you say
(Chorus)
