Lyrics
Mmm, yeah

My love's a weapon and I'm knocking 'em dead I got a heart that's tough as leather Get what I want and just forget 'em Well, this game you're playin' is a Russian roulette Just 'cause I'm sweet when we're together doesn't mean I'm yours forever

I never should have looked into your eyes Now everybody's gonna see your appeal

Don't go ruinin', ruinin' my my bad reputation Don't go tellin' 'em, tellin' 'em all the plans we been makin' 'Cause everyone knows that I don't cry You never see stars shining in my eyes Ruinin', ruinin' my my bad reputation Oh no, oh oh no, no, oh no Oh oh, no no

Well, I tell 'em tell 'em, yeah, you're nothing to me I tell 'em that you, you're just another You're just like any other Well, I try to sell 'em but they ain't buyin' it Baby they see me start to stutter when they ask if you're my lover

I'm losing sleep, what's gotten into me I'm usually never this weak baby

Don't go ruinin', ruinin' my my bad reputation Don't go tellin' 'em, tellin' 'em all the plans we been makin' 'Cause everyone knows that I don't cry You never see stars shining in my eyes Ruinin', ruinin' my my bad reputation Oh no, oh oh no, no, oh no Oh oh, no no

I have got to pull myself together but I can't control it My lips they know what they want, everybody knows it Once a girl controlled the world with words that pierce the bone Now I'm smiling like a lovesick puppet, everybody knows Don't go ruinin', ruinin' my my bad reputation Don't go tellin' 'em, tellin' 'em all the plans we been makin' 'Cause everyone knows that I don't cry You never see stars shining in my eyes Ruinin', ruinin' my my bad reputation Oh no, no no no Oh no, no, no no no no 'Cause everyone knows that I don't cry You never see stars shining in my eyes Ruinin', ruinin' my my bad reputation Oh no
