He bought me roses

He bought me roses
A hefty, harlequin bunch,
He bought me roses
Then he took me to lunch,
He bought me roses
Oh with perfumed petals too!
He bought me roses
So I knew his love was true.

Always listen to mama
Was my mother’s refrain,
Always listen to mama
To avoid myself pain,
Always listen to mama
‘Cause my mother knows best,
Always listen to mama
All good men have treasure chests.

So he bought me roses
I never spend a dime,
He bought me roses
He expects a good time,
He bought me roses
He’s self-centred and plain,
He bought me roses
I wish I never see him again,
He bought me roses
But the truth of it
is that he bought me roses
But he ain’t worth shit.
