The Emotions
Whatcha Gonna Do
[Verse 1:]
I remember when
I was the center of your attention
You made me love you
With such sweet inspiration

It seemed the world existed
For only you and I
You said I'd never shed a tear
You'd never make me cry

After one year
How could things have changed?
(You used to handle me with care)
(Now you play me like a game)

It seems there's only one thing
That you care about
You don't even bother to call my name
Until the lights go out

[Chorus:]
What'cha gonna do
When the lights go down
And you want my loving?
I'll be on your mind
But I won't be around
Cause you're always bugging
What'cha gonna do
When you call my name
And I don't come running?
What'cha gonna do?
What'cha gonna do?
When I'm not around

[Verse 2:]
It's true
I'm a sucker for you
But my mama didn't raise no fool
And I'll only take some much neglect
From a love I thought was true

So this is my last plea
I hope you listen to my cries
Or you might just leave the bed one night
To see a note that says goodbye

Let's work this out
I want our song to last
(I don't want you to be a memory)
(Or just a lover in my past)

So please take out the time
And believe what I said
Hope you find the answers
Before you come to bed
[Repeat Chorus x2:]

[Bridge:]
It seems like
You're always messing around
In the places you've got no business
Seems like
You're always letting me down
Baby tell me

[Repeat Chorus x3:]
