Beware lyrics

When she walks in the room 

like she's bein' televised,

when she stares at you

with that look in her eyes,

then she starts to dance,

she takes centre stage,

a part of your life turns another page.

Oh, boy, better get outta there.

When your blood runs cold

like a sea of cocaine

and that look on her face 

is gettin' to your brain

and when you can't get her outta your head,

maybe you'd be better off dead.

Oh, boy, you'd better listen to me:

beware, take care.

Beware, take care.  

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).  

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).  

Beware, beware.

When you lie in bed but you can't sleep,

you try to forget, but the hurt is so deep

so you walk the streets of a deserted town,

but no solution can be found.

Then, boy, better get on your knees and pray.

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).  

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).  

Beware, beware.

Beware, she'll shoot those eyes 

like bullets from a gun

and she will get you, boy,

if she says you're the one.

Suddenly, you turn around 

and she will stand and stare

with a full moon in the sky 

and perfume in the air.

Beware, beware.

Each and every day,

you wish your minutes away.

You won't be happy till you see her again.

When your blood runs cold

like a sea of cocaine

and that look on her face 

is gettin' to your brain

and when you can't get her outta your head,

maybe you'd be better off dead.

Oh, boy, you'd better listen to me:

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

Beware.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

Take care.

(Take care, boy, you better take care).  

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

Listen to what I say, man.

You better look out.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

'Cause she's scannin' you...

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

...with that look in her eyes.

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).  

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).  

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).

(Beware, boy, you better beware).

(Take care, boy, you better take care).
