I do all the right things
Not for reasons you think
I manipulate to get my way, it's so enticing
And if I'm so self-aware
It's you who got me there
I won't be a snake, don't take my bait
Or we can rattle rattle

Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
It's only gonna rust, turn to dust
Leave you in the cold
Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
Don't say you don't trust no one but me

You do all the right things
Your tones are inviting
You know all the looks to set your hooks
You'll get that pretty ring
You'll have sinners praying and you will have them saying
Make me, break me
Just take me, take me

Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
It's only gonna rust, turn to dust
Leave you in the cold
Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
Don't say you don't trust no one but me

Be careful, it's not made of gold
It's only gonna rust, turn to dust
(Trust no one but me)
Leave you in the cold
Be careful, it's not made of gold
(Don't say you don't trust no one but me)

I've got my reasons (and they've got me)
I've got my reasons (and they've got me)
I've got my reasons (and they've got me)
We live (perfect harmony)

Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
It's only gonna rust, turn to dust
Leave you in the cold
Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
Don't say you don't trust no one but me

Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
It's only gonna rust, turn to dust
Leave you in the cold
Be careful, be careful
It's not made of gold
Don't say you don't trust no one but me

Be careful (trust no one but me)
(Trust no one but me) be careful
(Trust no one but me)
(Don't say you don't) trust no one but me

Make me, break me
Take me, take me
Just make me, break me
Take me, take me
Make me, break me
Take me, take me
(Don't say you don't trust no one but me)
