Lyrics
I'm not a ladys' man, my options are few
There's someone for everyone, too bad it wasn't you
Uptown: I bought a round
Midtown: we fooled around
Downtown: I fell in love
BringDown: you said let's be friends
It happens every time I start the mating waltz
The love arrow flies but Cupids' aim is false
He always misses her while my heart is struck
I'm Cupids' sitting duck
This is why life sucks
This is why life sucks
I'm not a ladys' man, that you can see,
There's someone for everyone, I hope that works for me
Uptown: you're in the arms of another
Midtown: we avoid each other
Downtown: I'm still in love
BringDown: we're still just 'friends'
It happens every time I start the mating waltz
The love arrow flies but Cupids' aim is false
He always misses her while my heart is struck
I'm Cupids' sitting duck
This is why life sucks
This is why life sucks
Was it true love or false hope?
I can't tell I can't cope
My angel without wings
moved on to better things
No grand love, just a fling
I was just her plaything
My greatest of fears: she's jerking my tears
It happens every time I start the mating waltz
The love arrow flies but Cupids' aim is false
He always misses her while my heart is struck
I'm Cupids' sitting duck
This is why life sucks this is why life sucks
