Pain it's only a little pain It'll be gone in a couple of days Or maybe a life or two Heart it's only my poor heart Just that little thing you tore apart It ain't no headline news [Chorus] But a grown woman should've known better Than to treat me like some old lipstick You use up and throw away Hey, hey, hey Time I wish I could turn back time To when you were just a child And teach you a thing or two About love it's okay if you wanna give up But there's a way to leave someone And you don't have to be so cruel [Chorus] But a grown woman should've known better Than to treat me like some old dish rag You use up and throw away Hey, hey, hey You're supposed to treat your lover At least as good as your neighbor So how could you, a grown woman Not know no better I ain't no lipstick you use up and throw away Cause you're ready for another shade Hey, hey, hey You should've known better Cause you're a grown woman
