Verse 1:
You’re a big talker, fire walker
Tellin stories, only lies
You had me fooled, I thought you were cool
Till I woke up – big surprise
Got lots of friends, and lots of money
Everyone around you knows your name
No one seems to notice you’re actin funny
No one but me – I’m onto your game
Chorus:
You’re nothing but a letdown
Nothin but a fake
Nothin but a letdown
You’re my biggest mistake
Nothin but a letdown
Leavin me with heartache
Nothin but a letdown
Verse 2:
You’re Jekyll and Hyde, you’re south of normal
Which one of these things just doesn’t belong?
You’re sweet as pie when everyone’s around you
When you turn your back, it’s a different song
I still can’t tell if you’re tryin to be malicious
Or if you can’t help it, are you mentally ill?
I just can’t tell if you’re just plain stupid
Or if you’re being mean, just for the thrill
Chorus:
You’re nothing but a letdown
Nothin but a fake
Nothin but a letdown
You’re my biggest mistake
Nothin but a letdown
Leavin me with heartache
Nothin but a letdown
Bridge:
How could I be so wrong, to think you were right?
A little bit of charm goes a long long way
Whatever looked so good in the dark of night
It just don’t stand up, in the light of day
End Chorus:
You’re nothing but a letdown
And I was easy prey
Nothin but a letdown
Just a fool on display
Nothin but a letdown
So I’m walkin away
Nothin but a letdown
Yeah I’m leavin today
You’re nothing but a letdown
Nothin but a snake
Nothin but a letdown
You’re my biggest mistake
Nothin but a letdown
Leavin me with heartache
Nothin but a letdown
