It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad
It's too bad, it's too bad
Today you had a visitor
Or should I say, an old friend
But wait a minute
That's not where it ends, no
Is there something
That you wanna tell me
'Cause I'm believing what your friends say
About your hidden secrecies
Your girlfriend
Your girlfriend, she wasn't disrespectful
In fact, she's a hundred percent sure
And how could I argue with her
Holding a baby with eyes like yours
She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be any more us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yet so precious
She said she never
Wanted to hurt me
And could I understand
She's afraid and lost
She said a real woman
Wouldn't do this over the phone
And that you told her about
Me after the baby was born, oh
Your girlfriend
Your girlfriend, she wasn't disrespectful
In fact, she's a hundred percent sure
And how could I argue with her
Holding a baby with eyes like yours
She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be any more us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yet so precious
Today you had a visitor
Or should I say, an old friend
But wait a minute
That's not where it ends, no
Is there something
That you wanna tell me
'Cause I'm believing what your friends say
About your hidden secrecies
Your girlfriend
Your girlfriend
And girlfriend
And girlfriend
And girlfriend
She wasn't disrespectful
In fact, she's a hundred percent sure
And how could I argue with her
Holding a baby with eyes like yours
She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be any more us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yet so precious
She said it's your child
And it really messed me up
How could you deny
Your own flesh and blood
Gotta face reality
There can never be any more us
Won't deny it's hurting me
Yet so precious
It's your, it's your child
It's your child
