I caught the tail of a hurricane and I've never ever been the same
I went out on a limb, gotcha under my skin, well alright
You got dirt under your fingernails
What I'm thinkin' can land me in jail
Well, you're caught in this trap and you can never go back
Well, oh no no

I know you wanna cross the border and you know the doctor's orders
Well it's better late than never, can't stay innocent forever
It's alright, it's alright, yeah

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
You're hot under the collar
Ain't your mother's little daughter anymore

Ooh, ain't no wolf on the corner, can't keep it in any longer
Well if you're lookin' for bliss
What I got you can't miss, well alright

When it works like a charm it'll do you no harm
You'll be in heaven tonight
I know you'll feel alright

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
I know what's in your heart, I know what's in your mind

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
You're hot under the collar
Ain't your mother's little daughter anymore

I know you wanna cross the border and you know the doctor's orders
Well it's better late than never, can't stay innocent forever
No, no, no, no

Yeah, alright
Well, if I told you once, I told you twice
Just listen, babe, and take my advice
Why settle for seconds when you can have the best
So let me be your king bee, I want your hornets nest

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
You know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
I know what's in your heart, I know what's in your mind, yeah

Any way you slice it, any way you slice it
I know you can't deny it, any way you slice it
You're hot under the collar
Ain't your mother's little daughter anymore
You know you ain't your mother's little daughter anymore
Any way, ooh hoo

I read your mind like an open book
You lost the fire in your eyes
You turn to me with a different look
And then it's raining, looks like it's raining

Oh no, tears are falling
Oh no, tears are falling
Oh no, tears are falling

Something is wrong as I hold you near
Somebody else holds your heart, yeah
You look at me with your eyes in tears
And then it's raining, feels like it's raining

Oh no, tears are falling
Oh no, tears are falling, whoo oh
Oh no, tears are falling, whoo oh
I saw you cry

And now it's raining (yeah)
Looks like it's raining (someone stole your heart)
And now it's raining, feels like it's raining

Oh no, tears are falling
Oh no, tears are falling, whoo oh
Oh no, tears are falling, someone stole your heart
Oh no, tears are falling, they're falling from your eyes
Oh no, tears are falling, (no no, falling from your eyes)
Oh no, tears are falling
(Oh no, no, falling, oh, they're falling from your eyes)
Oh no, tears are falling (Oh no, no, falling from your eyes)
Oh no, tears are falling

I saw my pictures hangin' on her wall
She cut it out of that magazine
It was a hot day, she wore lingerie
And nothin' else in between, ooh
She had long hair and thigh high snake skin boots
And she was all over me like a cheap suit

Then she bared herself, aha
And stripped my soul
Began to shake, rattle, and roll
Then I took control, yeah

But I know she's secretly cruel
I ain't nobody's fool
Yeah, I know she's secretly cruel
Just when I though it was safe
She puts her lips to my face
She's secretly, secretly cruel

Well she grabbed my hair
And I began to rise
I could tell what she wanted
By that look in her eyes, oh, ow
By that look in her eyes, yeah
I said "Come here babe and make it quick"
She said "Not so fast"
And had a drink

Well it ain't just luck
But I better knock on wood
She's gonna give me everything
Somehow I knew she would

Oh, but I know she's secretly cruel
I ain't nobody's fool
Well, I know she's secretly cruel
I said baby you're the fire, but I am the fuel
She's secretly, secretly cruel
Yeah, so cruel

Well it ain't just luck (ain't just luck)
But I better knock on wood, yeah
She's gonna give me everything
Somehow I knew she would

Oh, but I know she's secretly cruel
I ain't nobody's fool, nobody's fool
Secretly, she's so cruel (cruel)
I'm in love, but I don't play the fool
Secretly, she's so cruel, secretly, so cruel
Cruel, yeah, cruel, yeah, cruel, yeah
I know she's secretly, she's so cruel, secretly, so cruel
Cruel, yeah, cruel, yeah, cruel, yeah
I know she's secretly, she's so cruel, secretly, she's so cruel
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, secretly, secretly cruel, cruel
