Angry Johnny & The Killbillies

I wish i had been that creep
that you wanted me to be
i wish i would've cheated and lied
if only i had been that creep
that you wanted me to be
you'd still be here by my side
Chorus:
but nice guys finish last,
it's a cliché but it's true
the good guys always get the shaft,
they never get the girl like you
i should've tried a little harder,
but i didn't know the game
My mom and daddy raised me right
so i guess they're part to blame
i should've treated you like you treated me
when you tore my heart in two
you should have stayed a little longer
you could have taught me how to lie
we could have been the perfect couple i am sure
i would've been your favorite creep,
i would've been your perfect guy
i would've been what you hate living life most for
(chorus)
I wish i had been that creep
that wanted me to be
i wish i would've cheated and lied
if only i had been that creep
that you wanted me to be
you'd still be here by my side
