Paying The Ultimate Price
A low self esteem man falls for the wrong woman in a desperate attempt to win her over. He is blinded by his affection for her which leads him into a world of hurt.

Chorus
I feel like I’ve lost my mind
Cos she told me that everything between us was fine
Now I’m paying the ultimate price
For being so stupid & unwise
Verse 1
Lacking confidence, I was never into my looks
Cos my ugliness left me completely shook
Until Mary came around looking for a fall guy
And asked me a question which I couldn’t answer cos I was so shy
She smiled as if to re-assure me
That there was absolutely no need for me to worry
Like a fool, I believed every word she said
Not knowing that I was being totally played
Chorus
I feel like I’ve lost my mind
Cos she told me that everything between us was fine
Now I’m paying the ultimate price
For being so stupid & unwise
Verse 2
Although I quickly found out she had a checkered history
As far as I was concerned, we had instant chemistry
We soon became tight like Bonnie & Clyde
And I wanted her so badly to be my bride
Even when she told me she was still married to her husband who was in prison
I thought nothing of it & was willing to go against my religion
Though I had no money, there wasn’t anything I wouldn’t do to keep her happy
She knew this & convinced me to rob a bank which till today, still haunts me
Chorus
I feel like I’ve lost my mind
Cos she told me that everything between us was fine
Now I’m paying the ultimate price
For being so stupid & unwise
