I Prefer from Pompous Ass by The Wowse

"I Prefer"

You told me everything was going all right
You even told me that your love was still bright
But I knew that you were giving me lip service

I saw the blonde give you a wink at the bar
A hole in one but you were ten over par

'Cause I prefer knowing than not know at all
And I prefer knowing than not know at all

I had imagined you to be all I want
But now I see the man behind all the stunts
And now will you kindly get into that cannon

You came with roses thinking you'll get your way
You looked at me like you were making my day
I gave you the finger so you wouldn't linger  

'Cause I prefer knowing than not know at all
And I prefer knowing than not know at all

I'm in and out of heaven
Lies only make it even
I'm telling you this
When your guy isn't true
Go ahead and indulge
And be wicked and cruel
And accept the next dance
Like your greatest romance
Is dependent on setting your foot
in his sensitive heart

Let him say he loves you
Part, never look behind you
I'm telling you true
There's another for you
Never think that your heart
Should have suffered for two
When he calls let him know
That you're out on a date
And it's all going great
And you just have to go

When I had told you I was feeling delight
I meant my sleep is finally restful at night

'Cause I prefer knowing than not know at all
And I prefer knowing than not know at all
