You make me act like a fool
  You treat me mean and cold and cruel
  You make me do things that I hate to do
  Why do you make me act like a fool?
  Now that you know just how much I care
  You treat me mean and it ain't right nor fair
  I keep holdin' on though I don't know what to
  While you make me act like a fool
  
  You know just how to hurt me and you often do
  When we're out in publib I start fightin' with you
  You start trouble in private when nobody knows
  Oh, then you go away smellin' just like a rose
  
  Though you make me act like a fool
  You treat me mean cold and cruel
  You make me do things that I hate to do
  Oh, why must you make me act like a fool?
  
  You know just how to hurt me as you often do
  You start flirtin' in public with somebody new
  You start trouble in private when nobody knows
  Oh then you go away smellin' just like a rose
  
  Though you make me act like a fool
  You treat mean and cold and cruel
  You make me do things that I hate to do
  Oh but why do you make, oh why do I let you
  Make me look like a fool?
