Nina Simone — Tell It Like It Is

[Verse 1] Now, if you want something to play with, go and find yourself a toy 'Cause little boy my time is too expensive, and I'm not a little boy So if you are serious, don't play with my heart, it makes me furious But if you want me to love you, you know I will, you know I will Tell it like it is [Verse 2] Don't be ashamed, let your conscience be your guide I know deep down inside of me I believe you love me So forget your foolish pride Life is too short for sorrow You may be here today and gone tomorrow You might as well get what you want So go on and please Tell it like it is [Outro] I'm nothing to play with, go and find yourself a toy Tell it like it is (Ooh, ooh, ooh) Tell it like it is (Like it is, ooh)
