The Creep

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
