Love Is Unkind

Danko Jones

Mama said, watch out son, skinny top, heavy bottom
I know that's easy to tell, that girl's just puttin' you through hell
Papa said my turn, step outside you gotta learn Women and girls will make your head turn
But daddy I'm doin' fine without her

Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind

Couple comes up to me, they're in love, plain to see
I take a step back and start to laugh, you know love can never last
'cause love comes in then falls out, that's when you learn what it's about
'I love you' always ends, with 'I think we should just be friends'

Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind

Now I want to talk about love
I want to talk about love
Because all my life I've been told, that love'll keep you together, love is all you need, and all you need is love, love is the answer

But I remember the time, that my momma sat me down and she looked me in the eye, the little pea-bone with a smile, and her smile turned into a laugh, and her laugh turned into a cackle, and you know what she said
You know what she said?

Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind

That's what she said

Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind
Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind

It don't like nobody

Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind

It don't got no friends

Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind

It don't like nobody

Love is unkind, Love is unkind, Love is unkind

It don't got no friends

Ladies and gentlemen, I'm gonna prove my point tonight, I'm gonna tilt my head up to the sky
I'm gonna look at the good lord in the eye and if the good lord, wants to strike me down tonight, and I haven't found my true love I haven't found her

If I haven't found my true love, Baby
If the good lord wants to strike me down tonight and I haven't found my true, I haven't found my true love
I'm gonna die a happy man
