Lyrics

[Verse 1] Never thought that anyone in their right mind Could never treat another human so unkind Didn't you sneak away and leave a note behind? Was that the human thing to do? [Verse 2] Always thought that yours was such a heart of gold But after I was sold on all the tales you told Didn't you let your kisses turn from hot to cold? Was that the human thing to do? [Bridge] Now I'm not tryin' to patch things up What's been done must be Gee, I wouldn't even treat a pup The way you treated me [Verse 3] How could anybody be so darn unfair? You let me hang around till I learned to care Didn't you even laugh and leave me cryin' therе? Was that the human thing to do? [Verse 1] (Never thought that anyonе in their right mind) (Could never treat another human so unkind) (Didn't you sneak away and leave a note behind?) Was that the human thing to do? [Verse 2] (Always thought that yours was such a heart of gold) (But after I was sold on all the tales you told) (Didn't you let your kisses turn from hot to cold?) Was that the human thing to do? [Bridge] Now I just wanna be understood I'm no false alarm If I couldn't do a human good I wouldn't do them harm [Verse 4] How you let me fall and how you let me go And when I begged you back you said you had to go But didn't you even try to take my stereo? Was that the human thing to do? [Outro] Was that the human thing to do? Was that the human thing to do? Was that the human thing to do?
