He's a pretender he knows just what to say. He's a pretender yeah you meet him every day. He's a pretender that fish that got away. He's a pretender why'd I fall in love. It was so strange the way he held my hand. I wanted more than just a one night stand. He had a way of making me believe. That he was mine and that he'd never leave. Chorus:. I know that I should take my friend's advice. 'Cause if it happened once you know it happens twice. If there's a chance then I know I've got to try. I'll make him dance with me I'll make him tell me why. He's a pretender. He's a pretender. Intermediate:. I'm not afraid to fall a hundred times. And I'll believe in all your silly lies. I'd like to think that I could change your mind. Don't say that I am blind I know all about your kind. He's a pretender yeah you meet him every day. He's a pretender that fish that got away. He's a pretender why'd I fall in love. I like the way he moved across the floor. And when he danced with me I knew he wanted more. But in the dark things happened much too fast. I should've stopped him then I knew it wouldn't last. (chorus). (intermediate). He's a pretender yeah you meet him every day. He's a pretender that fish that got away. He's a pretender why'd I fall in love
