Mental As Anything - Love Is Not A Gift Lyrics

I threw a party for a friend
I baked a cake, I bought some beer
Filled my flat with such good cheer
He didn't bother to attend
So much for a friend

I gave my love to a girl
Was always polite, I was always so kind
She broke with me, left me behind
My emotions I kept inside
'Til my heart fried, sizzled and dried

Love is not a gift
Love is not too kind
Always end up being so unhappy
You end up being so unkind, yourself

I got a job right at the bottom
Worked so hard, I was always so nice
But being nice, I paid the price
Wasn't ruthless and I wasn't rotten
Always stay down at the bottom

Love is not a gift
Love is not too kind
Always end up being so unhappy
You end up being so unkind, yourself
You always end up being so unhappy
You end up being so unkind, yourself
