Well, here's a little story that I have to tell
About somebody that I thought I knew real well
It seems lately they haven't been respecting me
Or treating me with proper dignity

Well, I don't need you to treat me this way
And the more I seem to give you, well, the less I get
And I'm tired of livin' in this world of lies and regret

What should I do?
Wastin' all my lovin' on someone like you
If you don't like me for what you see
Well, then tell me, baby and set me free

'Cause what you see is what you get
Please remember this is it
What you see is what you get
What you see is what you get

Once there was a time when I needed you
And I looked past all the things that you put me through
Well, you let my heart lead me and it lead me blind
But it won't lead me back to you this time

Well, I don't need you, to treat me this way
And the more I gave to you, well, the less I got
If you thought I was about to take it, well, I'm not

What should I do?
I can't waste my lovin' on someone like you
You don't appreciate the things you see
So now it's time for you to just set me free

What you see is what you get
Please remember this is it
What you see is what you get
What you see is what you get

What should I do?
Wastin' all my lovin' on someone like you
If you don't like me for what you see
Well, then tell me baby, and set me free

'Cause what you see is what you get
Please remember this is it
What you see is what you get
What you see is what you get

'Cause what you see is what you get
Please remember this is it
What you see is what you get
What you see is what you get

Bye bye, baby, goodbye
Bye bye, baby, goodbye
Bye bye, baby
Bye bye, baby, goodbye
