Why can you just let me be
Have you no eyes in your sockets
Or are you just pleased to see me
As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare

As you all know
You better beware
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
Love is rare

I got so holy it hurt
Why was I blessed with this rage
You rub my face in the dirt
And there's a time to turn a new page

As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare

As you all know
( As you all know )
You better beware
( You better beware )
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare

As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare

As you all know
You better beware
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare

As you all know
You better take care
Just take care
Treat me with respect
Because
Love is rare

As you all know
You better beware
You better beware
Treat me with respect
Because
Love is rare

As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because

As you all know
You better beware
Treat me with respect
Because

As you all know
You better take care
Treat me with respect
Because

As you all know
Don't go rubbin' my face in the dirt
You better beware
Treat me with respect
Because love is rare
