[Chorus]
He's a pretender, he knows just what to say
He's a pretender, yeah you meet him every day
He's a pretender, like the fish that got away
He's a pretender, why'd I fall in love

[Verse 1]
It was so strange the way he held my hand
I wanted more than just a one night stand
He had a way of making me believe
That he was mine and that he'd never leave

[Refrain]
I know that I should take my friends' advice
'Cause if it happened once, you know it happens twice
If there's a chance then I know I've got to try
I'll make him dance with me, I'll make him tell me why

[Hook]
He's a pretender
He's a pretender

[Bridge]
I'm not afraid to fall a hundred times
And I'll believe in all your silly lies
I'd like to think that I could change your mind
Don't say that I am blind, I know all about your kind
