Oh, pain, pain, pain, rain, rain, rain, that's why you felt loves arrow and said, oh, Well, you knew from your first flirt, that love was here to hurt. True love is not nice, no, no.
Well, she's back with her old boyfriend, he don't challenge her, he don't contend with her. And she don't answer the cards you send, and you're jelous of the time that he spends with her.
Just let her do into the darkness, let her learn from all the things there. Let her go into the darkness, let her go, let her go, let her go.
His friends say stop whining, they've had enough of that. His friends would say stop pining, there's others girls to look at.
They've tried to set him up with Tiffany and Indigo, but there's something about Mary that they don't know.
Mary, there's just something about Mary.
Well, his friends say, look life's no fairy tale, that he should have some fun, he's suffered long enough. Well, they may now about domestic and imported ale, but they don't know a thing about love.
Well, his friends would say he's dreaming and living in the past, but they've never fallen in love, so his friends need not be asked.

Well I had just met the girl and her boyfriend She was ready for leaving him And I was the way, I was the key, I was her way to say, "I'm free"
And he would never talk about it, which made me sad I didn't see what we'd done That was so bad
We were all about twenty-one My career as a homewrecker Had just begun
I was thinkin' about the Boston rock scene one fine day And found it too conservative, you might say I knew her well, I knew him terrific What's wrong if we wanted something specific?
He never talked about it, which hurted me I never saw why such sorrow Had to be
I was now about twenty-four And I was called "homewrecker" Once more
If someone's mad at me, why can't they tell me so? Why do they just avoid me? If someone's mad at me, why can't they tell me so? Because I would want to know
Meanwhile out on the West Coast, I started wreckin' homes Tryin' to convince girlfriends to leave and roam Now I didn't touch 'em, 'cause I didn't want 'em But I wanted to affect 'em, I wanted to haunt 'em
And this was the following year My career as a homewrecker Was in third gear
Another case of homewreckin' I half-did Was the girl who loved me no matter what she said She tried to hide it as long as she could To save her boyfriend pain But it did no good
You see I have certain trades and certain wants Sometimes I'll try a certain thing to provoke a response Sometimes I'll break a rule just to see who looks Sometimes I'll knock on a door just to see what cooks
My career as a homewrecker is not yet through There's all these homewreckin' things to do Sometimes I'll break a rule just to see who cares Sometimes I'll knock just to see who's there
