Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You love her but she loves him

And he loves somebody else, you just can't win

And so it goes till the day you die

This thing they call love it's gonna make you cry

I've had the blues, the reds and the pinks, one thing for sure

[Verse 2]

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

[Verse 3]

Two by two and side by side

Love's gonna find you yes it is

You just can't hide, you'll hear it call

Your heart will fall then love will fly

It's gone, that's all

I don't care for any Casanova thing

All I can say is

[Verse 4]

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

[Verse 5]

I've been through diamonds

I've been through minks

I've been through it all

[Verse 6]

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

[Verse 7]

Love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, I mean it stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, love stinks, yeah, yeah

Love stinks, love stinks, love stinks
