Reverse Psychology

CHORUS/CHANT:

Reverse psychology

Doesn't work on me

It works my nerves

But I think logically

So don't rehearse what you're gonna say

I like it better the spontaneous way

You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it

I don't buy psyche - so why reverse it?

VERSE 1:

Games are good for attention (Mmm-yeah!)

But in the end they let you down

Hold me back or let me go

But no more middle ground

Boy, you've got to play your cards right

Get on back to the basics of love

We don't need no mindless mind games

A little give and take - push and shove -

A little honesty is what I'm in need of!

CHORUS/CHANT

VERSE 2:

Don't you know I've seen it all

Though I seem naive to you

(So now) Hit me with anything at all -

Just hit me with the truth - yeah!

You keep thinking one of these days you'll

Push my back against the wall (against the wall)

It's too late for tricks of the trade now

I can escape anything at all - oh!

A little push and shove - give and take -

But I won't fall!

CHORUS:

Reverse psychology

Doesn't work on me (never did, never will)

It works my nerves

But I think logically

So don't rehearse what you're gonna say

I like it better the spontaneous way

You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it

I don't buy psyche - so why reverse it?

BRIDGE:

Why wait till something better comes along?

Why not stay steady and strong? (steady and strong)

A silver lining cannot be far away (be far)

You'll get much further if you

Do what you mean and mean what you say

1-2-3-I said.....

CHORUS:

Reverse psychology

Doesn't work on me

It works my nerves

But I think logically (oh so much)

So don't rehearse what you're gonna say

I like it better the spontaneous way

You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it

I don't buy(I don't buy it) psyche - so why reverse it?

CHORUS/CHANT

Jam! Jam!

I said, Jam!

Reverse psychology style

Jam

Jam (Oooo - yeah!)
