He’s so selfish you know its true
Baby he’ll pull the rug right under you
He’s so selfish it just ain’t far
He’s got more fancy moves than Fred Astaire
Now you’re just one more string to his bow
But baby I think there’s something you should know

He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
And he’s gonna lose your love

Don’t you worry I making plans
With luck he’ll play straight into my hands
What’s the hurry just take your time
The punishment he gets will fit the crime
Every ace that you deal will return
I’m just waiting for bridges to burn

He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
And he’s gonna lose your love
Now you’re just one more string to his bow
But baby I think there’s something you should know

He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
He’s getting careless
And he’s gonna lose your love
