As recorded by PAT BENATAR:

Whatcha tryin' to do to my heart
Whatcha tryin' to do to my heart
You go around tellin' lies
And now you wanna compromise
Whatcha tryin' to do to my heart
You better run, you better hide
You better leave from my side, yeah
 
Whatcha tryin' to do to my soul
Whatcha tryin' to do to my soul
Well everything I had is yours
And now I'm closin' all the doors
Whatcha tryin' to do to my soul
You better run, you better hide
You better leave from my side, yeah
 
I love you, oh I love you so
Can't you see, don't you know
I can't stand your alibis
You tell me lies, drive me wild, yeah
 
Say what are you tryin' to do to my head
Say whatcha tryin' to do to my head
Well now I'm gonna draw the line 
'Cause you ain't gonna take my mind
What are you tryin' to do to my head
 
You better run, you better hide
You better leave from my side
You better run, you better hide
You better leave from my side
I can yell, yeah
I said go away and leave me alone
I can't stand you no more
