[Verse 1]

I got a date tonight with such a sweet little innocent thing

I'll sweep her off her feet before she knows what's happening

I'm gonna hand her (Ooh!) my sweet-talkin' line

I know it kills her (Wow!) every time

She's gonna love me from the start

And then I'm gonna break her heart

[Pre-Chorus (spoken)]

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!

This is your conscience speaking

[Chorus]

Be kind and sentimental

Treat her tenderly

'Cause if you're not a gentleman

You're gonna hear from me

And if she loves you from the very start

Now listen, Jimmy

I'm tellin' you, you'd better not break her heart

No, no, no, n-no, no, no

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, yes, I will

Oh, no, you won't

Yes, I will

No, you won't

Oh, yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will

[Verse 2]

I'm just a big, bad wolf, I know tonight I'll be lookin' so good

She'll be a helpless child just like a Little Red Riding Hood

I'm gonna charm her (Mmm!) right into a trance

I know she'll never (Wow!) stand a chance

She's gonna love me from the start

And then I'm gonna break her heart

[Pre-Chorus (spoken)]

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!

This is your conscience speaking

[Chorus]

Be kind and sentimental

Treat her tenderly

'Cause if you're not a gentleman

You're gonna hear from me

And if she loves you from the very start

Now listen, Jimmy

I'm tellin' you, you'd better not break her heart

No, no, no, no, no, no

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, yes, I will

Oh, no, you won't

Yes, I will

No, you won't

Yes, I will, yes, I will, yes, I will

[Outro]

Now listen, Jimmy

You'd better not break her heart

But I'm a lover

You'd better not break her heart

Man, my reputation

You'd better not break her heart

Now, now you listen

You'd better not break her heart
