I'll Never Fall In Love Again

Lyrics

What do you get when you fall in love?

A guy with a pin to burst your bubble

That's what you get for all your trouble

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again

What do you get when you kiss a girl?

You get enough germs to catch pneumonia

After you do, she'll never phone you

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again

Don't tell me what it's all about

'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out

Out of those chains, those chains that bind you

That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you give your heart?

You get it all broken up and battered

That's what you get, a heart that's shattered

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again

Out of those chains, those chains that bind you

That is why I'm here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?

You only get lies and pain and sorrow

So for at least until tomorrow

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again

I'll never fall in love again
