Jonathan Richman ---True Love Is Not Nice



Well, it hurts from the bottom

and it hurts down to your soul

that's because true love is not nice.

And it brings up hurt from when

you were five years old

that's because true love is nice.



Oh, pain, pain, pain,

ain't that just love's name,

love can bring up hurt

from way down low.

It now be unforsized,

true love is just not cizilized.

True love is not nice,

no, no.



Well, you've been hurt before,

but now you're hurt and sore.

True love is not nice.

And if it's real love then

that hurt won't go, well,

true love is not nice.



Oh, pain, pain, pain,

rain, rain, rain,

that's why you felt loves

arrow and said, oh,

Well, you knew from your first flirt,

that love was here to hurt.

True love is not nice,

no, no.
