Guys Like You (Give Love a Bad Name) Lyrics by Stacy Lattisaw

Sneakin’ Out

1982

[Verse 1:]
You got that devil's walk
That cool persuavive talk
Sending me to fall
Those Valentino eyes
Have got me hypnotized
Giving you my all
Oh, it feels like heaven
Here alone with you
But what you've got me
Doin' things you'll never do
[Chorus:]
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad name
You'll just go and take my love and then
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad name
You'll just break my heart
You'll never change
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad name
And girls like me feel the pain
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 2:]
You're hot and cold too much
There's nothing real to touch
Even though I try
You take my love and split
You broke my heart to bits
Nothing's left inside
I can see your future
You're just holding on
But now that good-for-nothing is as good as gone
[Repeat Chorus:]
[Bridge:]
I thought that both of us were tryin'
But all you've done is leave me cryin'
You'll just break my heart
[Repeat Chorus:]
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad name
You'll just go and take my love and then
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad name
You'll just break my heart
You'll never change
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad name
You'll just break my heart
You'll never change
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad name
Whoa, yeah, yeah
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad, love a bad
Guys like you, like you, baby
Give love a bad, love a bad
