Lyrics:
Verse 1
An angel's smile is what you sell
You promise me heaven then put me through hell
Chains of love got a hold on me
When passions a prison you can't break free
Pre-chorus
Oh, You're a loaded gun
Oh, There's noway to run
No one can save me
The damage is done
Chorus
Shot thru the heart
And you're to blame
You give love a bad name
I play my part and you play your game
You give love a bad name
You give love a bad name
2 Verse
You paint your smile on your lips
Blood red nails on your fingertips
A schoolboy's dream, you act so shy
Your very first kiss was your first kiss goodbye
Pre-chorus
Chorus
Chorus

oh oh oh oh
