from the songs album The Immaculate Collection
Spoken:
Come on girls! You believe in love?
'Cause I got something to say about
It and it goes something like this!
Chorus:
Don't go for second best, baby. Put
Your love to the test. You know, you
Know you've got to make him express
How he feels and maybe then you
Know your love is real.
You don't need diamond rings or 18
Karrot gold. Fancy cars that go very
Fast, you know they never last no
No.
What you need is a big strong hand
To lift you to your higher ground.
Make you feel like a queen on a throne.
Make him love you till you can't come down.
You'll never come down.
Chorus:
Don't go for second best, baby. Put
Your love to the test. You know, you
Know you've got to make him express
How he feels and maybe then you
Know your love is real.
Long-stem roses are the way to your
Heart but he needs to start with your
Head. Satin sheets are very romantic,
What happens when you're not in bed?
You deserve the best in life, so if the
Time isn't right then move on. Second
Best is never enough. You'll do much
Better, baby, on your own. Baby on
Your own.
Chorus:
Don't go for second best, baby. Put
Your love to the test. You know, you
Know you've got to make him express
How he feels and maybe then you
Know your love is real.
Chorus 2:
Express yourself. You've got to make him
Express himself, hey hey hey hey. So if you
Want it right now, make him show you how.
Express what he's got, oh baby, ready or not?
Bridge:
And when you're gone he might regret it,
Think about the love he once had, try to
Carry on but he just won't get it. He'll be
Back on his knees to express himself. You've
Got to make him express himself, hey hey.
What you need is a big strong hand
To lift you to your higher ground.
Make you feel like a queen on a throne.
Make him love you till you can't come down.
You'll never come down.
Bridge 2:
And when you're gone he might regret it,
Think about the love he once had, try to
Carry on but he just won't get it. He'll be
Back on his knees, so please...
Chorus:
Don't go for second best, baby. Put
Your love to the test. You know, you
Know you've got to make him express
How he feels and maybe then you
Know your love is real.
Chorus 2:
Express yourself. You've got to make him
Express himself, hey hey hey hey. So if you
Want it right now, make him show you how.
Express what he's got, oh baby, ready or not?
Chorus 3:
Express yourself so you can respect yourself,
Hey hey. So if you want it right now, better
Make him show you how. Express what he's
Got, oh baby, ready or not? Express yourself.
