[Verse 1]
I've got something to say
That's gonna cause you pain
If I catch you talking to that boy again
I'm gonna let you down
And leave you flat

[Chorus]
Because I told you before, oh
You can't do that

[Verse 2]
Now, that's the second time
I catch you talking to him
If I see you doing it one more time, I'm gonna think it's a sin, baby
I'm gonna let you down (Let you down)
And leave you flat (Gonna let you down and leave you flat)
What do you think of that?
Come on!

[Chorus]
Because I've told you before, mmm
You can't do that, oh

[Bridge]
Everybody's green (Everybody's green!)
That I'm the one who won your love
And if you're seen
Talking that way they're gonna laugh, laugh in my face
