Please Be Cruel Lyrics

Judas's friends have got so strong

It's through the way they made you carry someone else's wrong

I've seen the way he ties you down

To blind man's bluff in a bridal gown



So you beat him at his games

So he had to change the rules

Please be cruel



Every word that's spoken's ringing in your ears

This light we look upon has gone and passed a thousand years

He says you're mutton dressed as lamb

But he's a vegetarian



So you live to fight another day

But you get weaker every way

Please be cruel



'Cause you're a woman who needs persuading

Never needed anybody

To affect this change your life so badly needs



Judas's friends have got so strong

It's through the way they made you carry someone else's wrong

I've seen the way he ties you down

To blind man's bluff in a bridal gown



So you beat him at his games

So he had to change the rules

Oh, please be cruel



Oh, please be cruel

Oh, please be cruel

Don't know if I should



Please be cruel

Please be cruel

Please be cruel
