DIRTY CORE
                              S.Verona/M.Mehta/Crosswinds

Ooh ooh ooh ooh (cause you can’t hurt me no more)
I can see right through to your dirty core

I thought what we had would last
I forgave you and forgot the past
but all the pain and suffering
hurt down deep and it made me see
that your love shouldn’t treat you bad
they don’t make you cry or make you sad
so the thought occurred to me
if I loved myself I’d let you be

cause you can’t hurt me no more
I can see right through to your dirty core
your hurtful words were just plain cruel
I see your games and I ain’t no fool
cause you can’t hurt me no more
I can see right through to your dirty core
your hurtful words were just plain cruel
I see your games and I ain’t no fool
I ain’t no fool

you’d corner me in the bedroom
and slap me in my face
you’d corner me in the kitchen
and say hurtful things 
you’d corner me in the bedroom
and slap me in my face
you’d corner me in the kitchen
and say hurtful things... oh yes you did 
I can see right through to your dirty core
and what I see I don’t want no more
 I can see right through to your dirty core

all the times you called to apologize
I took you back it was worth a try
but your cheating path started again
you’d leave me alone when I needed a friend
all alone with tears in my eyes
you said we’d be happy that was just a lie
I was wrong to have trusted you
that’s it get out we’re through
cause you can’t hurt me no more
I can see right through to your dirty core
your hurtful words were just plain cruel
I see your games and I ain’t no fool
cause you can’t hurt me no more
I can see right through to your dirty core
your hurtful words were just plain cruel
I see your games and I ain’t no foo-ool
ain’t no fool- I ain’t no fool

you’d go out with your buddies and come home real late
then later on I’d found that you were on a date
you’d go out with your buddies and come home real late
then later on I’d found that you were on a date
oh yes you were (I can see right through to your dirty core)
(you were) but it’s too late (I can see right through)

cause you can’t hurt me no more
I can see right through to your dirty core
your secret is out and this just in 
I’m out the door you won’t see me again
cause you can’t hurt me no more
I can see right through to your dirty core
your secret is out and this just in 
I’m out the door you won’t see me again
no you won’t
