That sad little thing you call a heart, before we start
Boy, you can keep it
I'm not impressed with fancy cars, on the boulevard
Boy, you can keep it
And if you don't know
Now you should know
Time to break the news
I'm going solo
It's a no-go, don't want nothing from you
I feel it in my bones-bones-bones, yeah-yeah
Everytime we get close-close-close
He's a workaholic, professional staller
Full of excuses
Bitch, I'ma call it
Bitch, I'ma call it
You playin' around (oh, yeah)
I can't keep lovin' on faith
Good things don't come to those who wait
Never know what comes if I stay
You know what I need, so fade away
I'm setting you free, go fade away
So stop
That sad little thing you call a heart, before we start
Boy, you can keep it
I'm not impressed with fancy cars, on the boulevard
Boy, you can keep it
And if you don't know
Now you should know
Time to break the news
I'm going solo
It's a no-go, don't want nothing from you
Boy, you can keep it
(oh, yeah) boy, you can keep it
(oh, yeah) boy, you can keep it
Boy, you can keep it
Just when I thought I heard it all
You dropped the ball, I can't believe it
If you don't bring the ah, then I bring the sauce
But we ain't there yet, so you can keep it
And if you don't know
Now you should know
Time to break the news
I'm going solo
It's a no-go, don't want nothing from you
I can't keep lovin' on faith
Good things don't come to those who wait
Never know what comes if I stay
You know what I need, so fade away
I'm setting you free, go fade away
So stop
That sad little thing you call a heart, before we start
Boy, you can keep it
I'm not impressed with fancy cars, on the boulevard
Boy, you can keep it
And if you don't know
Now you should know
Time to break the news
I'm going solo
It's a no-go, don't want nothing from you
Boy, you can keep it
Boy, you can keep it
(oh, yeah) boy, you can keep it
Boy, you can keep it
