I heard the news, baby
All a'bout your disease
Yeah, you may have all you want, baby
But I got something you need

Ain't talking 'bout love
My love is rotten to the core
Ain't talking 'bout love
Just like I told you before, yeah, before

You know you're semi-good-looking
And on the streets again
Oh yeah, you think you're really cooking, baby
You better find yourself a friend, my friend

Ain't talking 'bout love
My love is rotten to the core
Ain't even talking 'bout love
Just like I told you before, before, before, before

Ain't talking 'bout love
Baby, it's rotten to the core
Ain't talking 'bout love
Just like I told you before, before

I been to the edge
And there I stood and looked down
You know I lost a lot of friends there, baby
I got no time to mess around
So if you want it, I gotta cut you free baby
I gotta cut you free baby
I gotta cut you free baby
I gotta cut you free baby

Ain't talking 'bout love
My love is rotten to the core
Ain't talking 'bout love
Just like I told you before, before, before

Ain't talking 'bout love
Don't wanna talk a'bout love
Don't even talk a'bout love
Ain't gonna talk a'bout love, no more, no more
