Best Performance

Toni Basil, Bruce Roberts, Allee Willis

[Verse 1]
She's got those dark shades on to hide the pain
He left her and she'll never be the same
She's more concerned with saving face
So she's smiling like a debutante
Hiding what she really wants

[Verse 2]
Love is so temporary, it's a shame
Like building smoke rings that catch your fame
She lost herself along the way
Now she's drowning in her teenage dreams
Masterminding her next scheme

[Chorus]
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, oh no
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, no, no

[Verse 3]
She's victimized by wild fantasies
And wounded by their shots of jealousy
The huntress cannot catch a break
So she plots the ultimate revenge
But thoughts like that can do her in

[Verse 4]
She makes her eyes up just to catch his face
Extends her lip line 'till its heart-shaped
She calls him with a cheap excuse
She just cannot stop this mad charade
Her lust for him will never fade

[Chorus]
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, oh no
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, no, no

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, oh no
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, no, no
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, oh no
Even her best performance won't get him back
Won't get him back, no, no
