Reverse Psychology Lyrics - Gibson Debbie

REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY 

performed by: Debbie Gibson 

written by: Deborah Gibson 

Woo-oo! 

Chorus/Chant: 

Reverse psychology 

Doesn't work on me 

It works my nerves 

But I think logically 

So don't rehearse what you're gonna say 

I like it better the spontaneous way 

You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it 

I don't buy psyche - so why reverse it? 

Verse 1: 

Games are good for attention (Mmm-yeah!) 

But in the end they let you down 

So hold me back or let me go 

But no more middle ground 

(Ooo-yeah!) 

Boy, you've got to play your cards right 

Get on back to the basics of love 

We don't need no mindless mind games 

A little give and take - push and shove - 

A little honesty is what I'm in need of! 

CHORUS/CHANT 

Verse 2: 

Don't you know I've seen it all 

Though I seem naive to you 

(So now) Hit me with anything at all- 

Just hit me with the truth - yeah! 

You keep thinking one of these days you'll 

push my back against the wall (against the wall) 

It's too late for tricks of the trade now 

I can escape anything at all - oh! 

A little push and shove - give and take - 

But I won't fall! 

Reverse psychology 

Doesn't work on me (never did, never will) 

It works my nerves 

But I think logically 

So don't rehearse what you're gonna say 

I like it better the spontaneous way 

You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it 

I don't buy psyche - so why reverse it? 

Bridge: 

Why wait till something better comes along? 

Why not stay steady and strong? (steady and strong) 

A silver lining cannot be far away (be far) 

You'll get much further if you 

Do what you mean and mean what you say 

Do-do-do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do yeah! 

Do-do-do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do-do 

Ooooo... 

Do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do 

1-2, 1-2, 1-2-3- 

Reverse psychology 

Doesn't work on me 

It works my nerves 

But I think logically (oh so much) 

So don't rehearse what you're gonna say 

I like it better the spontaneous way 

You got an insecurity? I won't nurse it 

I don't buy(I don't buy it) psyche - so why reverse it? 

CHORUS/CHANT 

Jam! Jam! 

I said, Jam! 

Reverse psychology style 

Jam 

Jam (Oooo - yeah!) 

Do-do-do-do 

Do-do-do-do
