Sam Phillips › Lyrics › Baby I Can't Please You

Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby
Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh

Every time you start to criticize
I can see the misery in your eyes
You say I make your pain
But you're trying to turn the blame all around you, ooh

Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby
Baby I can't please you, I can't please you, baby

You take the words I say and make them mean
Everything they don't, baby, you're obscene
You don't listen, you don't hear
You're blinded by the fear that surrounds you, ooh

Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby
Baby I can't please you, I can't please you, baby

I know you say love when you mean control
You buy the truth and your heart is cold
So you live in shadows, baby I can't please you

You try to tell the world how it should spin
But you live in terror with the hollow men
Who stun you with their lies
With fever in their eyes as they drown you? Ooh

Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby
Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby

Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby
Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby

Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby
Baby I can't please you, I can't please you
Baby, ooh, baby
