[Verse 1]
The first time you came back to me
Crying on my shoulder, begging please
Take me back, I wasn't smart
'Cause I believed you were for real
Then you kept on breaking every deal
That you made with my heart
[Chorus]
Don't cry your crocodile tears
You don't fool for me for a minute, baby
You're not truly sorry after all
Don't cry your crocodile tears
I can see right through you, baby
Those tears mean nothing when they fall
[Verse 2]
Promise that our love won't die
And shaking in my arms, you softly lie
Without me, you'll fall apart
I've seen it all before
And now, I'm not gonna buy it anymore
Not again, not with my heart
[Chorus]
Don't cry your crocodile tears
You don't fool for me for a minute, baby
You're not truly sorry after all
Don't cry your crocodile tears
I can see right through you, baby
Those tears mean nothing when they fall
[Bridge]
I've been tryin' to keep a flame
Burning with desire
But you keep playing games
Anywhere there's a fire
[Chorus]
Don't cry your crocodile tears
You don't fool for me for a minute, baby
You're not truly sorry after all
Don't cry your crocodile tears
I can see right through you, baby
Those tears mean nothing when they fall
[Outro]
Don't cry your crocodile tears
Don't cry your crocodile tears
Don't cry your crocodile tears
Don't cry your crocodile tears
