She must 'a hurt on that battered day
Forgiveness was not on her mind
It was documented on tv
Back a while in two thousand and nine

She said, "Look what that man's gone and done to me."
And shows all her bruises from blows
It's so sad, she's too sweet to be punched on and beat
But, how it domestically goes

Angered first, she was so,
After while - it's just ho, hum..

Sing us a song 'bout the Rihanna man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we've all heard the words to that melody
Things have changed, now he'll treat me alright

I see how it goes with some friends of mine
Most times things are fine, carefree
But in just a few winks, the relation-ship sinks
And she's calling the cops, constantly
She says, "Help, I'm afraid - Joe is killing me.."
There are scars on her heart and her face
Tomorrow she'll wake up and just lick her wounds,
Fix his dinner and set his place

Oh, la la la, di da da
La la di da da da dum

Now Chris Brown's a rapper celebrity
Rihanna, also, has great fame
But things can get shady, 'tween guys and their lady
When egos and tempers inflame
All the rules will be broken in domestics
When your someone gets high or gets stoned
One wrong moment can cure your forgetfulness
And bring back the bad days you have known

Sing us a song 'bout that Rihanna man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we've all heard those words to the melody
Things have changed, now he treats me alright

Maybe there'll never be a new battered day
Maybe good times will win out and smile
Everybody deserves second chances when curves
Derail, off track, two lives for a while
Let's hope Rihanna and Chris get along this time
And no bad episodes reappear
Always happy they are, with true love in their jar
And stay that way for many a year

Oh, la la la, di da da
La la, di da da da dum

Sing us a song 'bout that Rihanna man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we've all heard the words to the melody
Times have changed, and he treats me alright

Times have changed, now he treats me alright
