Get Your Act Together
(And this happens even in the best families)
I just can’t understand
what’s going on with you
You were the busy little girl
You were the prettiest thing in the house
What’s wrong? You’ve changed!
What’s wrong? You’re acting so strange?
My mom’s worried sick
and I don’t want that old lady to suffer.
She’s been through so much
and I don’t want to add to her troubles.
Does my advice bother you?
Forgive me, I love you, sis.
The guy from the corner
who calls you all the time
he did the same with Lola, with Mercedes, and with Maria.
You don’t get it, he just wants to mess around.
Love calms you, but it can also break your heart and kill you.
So suddenly, get your act together because that guy is playing you.
He laughs sweetly, gives you affection, and then?
Get lost! Get in line! Another one!
Another victim, how nice!
When you open your eyes, you’ll cry, oh yes, you’ll cry...
You don’t understand, he just wants to mess around.
Love calms you, but it can also break your heart and kill you.
So watch out... get your act together because that guy is playing you.
When you open your eyes, you’ll cry, oh yes, you’ll cry...
