Lyrics - Pretender by Madonna

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
