Angry Johnny And The Killbillies The Creep Lyrics

The Creep Lyrics

I wish I had been that creep that you

wanted me to be

I wish I would've
cheated and lied

If only I had been that creep that you

wanted me to
be

You'd still be here by my side

(chorus) But nice guys finish
last,

it's a cliché but it's true

The good guys always get the
shaft,

they never get the girl like you

I should've tried a little
harder,

but I didn't know the game

My mom and daddy raised me right so
I guess

they're part to blame

I should've treated you like you treated
me when

you tore my heart in tow

You should have stayed a little
longer

You could have taught me how to lie

We could have been the
perfect couple I am sure

I would've been your favorite creep, I
would've

been your perfect guy

I would've been what you hate living
life most for

(chorus)

I wish I had been that creep that

wanted me
to be

I wish I would've cheated and lied

If only I had been that creep
that you

wanted me to be

You'd still be here by my side
