LOVE'S A SLAP IN THE FACE
Gene Simmons, Vini Poncia

I been up, down, and all around, tell you what I'm feelin'
I been hurt and I've found, been pushed around, it's how I got this feelin'

Rhy. Fig 2 w/ End 1:
I never thought I could hurt so good, no no
I never thought I could lose myself, but I just can't hide it (can't hide it)
They never let you down easy
Rhy. Fig 3:
Now listen

Rhy. Fig 4a:
Sometimes love is like a slap in the face, you been burned and still
It's the same old mistake
If you want my opinion, I'll give it to you straight
Love is like a slap in the face
Rhy. Fig 5 w/ End 1:
Singin' na na na na na na na na na
Rhy. Fig 5 w/ End 4:
Na na na na na na na na na

Rhy. Fig 6:
Love's got a hold on me, I can't believe it, but it's plain to see
Turns me upside down and inside out
Don't know why it never fails to make you scream and shout

Rhy. Fig 2 w/ End 2:
I never knew I could fool myself, no no, I never thought I could hurt so good
But I just can't hide it, guess I'm feelin' no pain, now listen
Rhy. Fig 3:

Rhy. Fig 4b w/ End 1:
Sometimes love is like a slap in the face, you been burned and still

But I'm here babe, I got a secret inside
Rhy. Fig 3:

Rhy. Fig 4b w/ End 2:
Sometimes love is like a ball and chain
Keeps you up at night, why is it always the same
If you wanna know the truth, it's something I can't explain
Yeah love is like a ball and chain
Rhy. Fig 8:
Yeah na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na na

Rhy. Fig 9: (repeat and fade)
Na na na na, na na na na na
Na na na na, na na na na na
