You better you better you bet
You better you better you bet
You better you better you bet
You better you better you bet
 
I call you on the telephone my voice too rough with cigarettes
I sometimes feel I should just go home but I'm dealing with a memory that never forgets
I love to hear you say my name, especially when you say yes
I got your body right now on my mind but I drunk myself blind to the sound of old T.Rex, m-m-m-m-m
To the sound of old T.Rex
Oh, and who's next
 
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you, cut you like a knife
 
I want those feeble-minded axes overthrown
I'm not into your passport picture, I just like your nose
You welcome me with open arms and open legs
I know only fools have needs but this one never begs
 
I don't really mind how much you love me
Ooh, a little is all right
When you say come over and spend the night, tonight, tonight
 
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you, cut you like a knife
 
I lay on the bed with you, we could make some book of records
Your dog keeps licking my nose and chewing up all those letters saying you better
You better bet your life
 
You better love me all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
You better love me all the time now
You better shove me back into line now
 
I showed up late one night with a neon light for a visa
But knowing I'm so eager to fight can't make letting me in any easier
I know I've been wearing crazy clothes and I look pretty crappy sometimes
But my body feels so good and I still sing a razor line every time
And when it comes to all night living, I know what I'm giving
I've got it all down to a tee, and it's free
 
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I need you you scream you better, ooh
You better you better you bet
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
And when I say I need you you say you better
You better you better you bet
When I say I love you you say you better
You better you better you bet
And when I say I need you you scream you better
You better you better you bet
 
You better bet your life
Or love will cut you
Just like a knife
