The Replacements
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
So many bands are just putting it on
Why can't they be the same as their songs?
I can't help it, I'm so naïve
Another record with my heart on the sleeve
Is he as cool, as he writes them?
Not always and hold that against him
I can't believe I've only just discovered the Replacements
How have I only just found out about the Replacements?
Some of them are nearly as old as my parents
How have I only just found out about the Replacements?
I want to love them but I'm can't be sure
I've been let down so many times before
This time I really want to believe
Another record with my heart on the sleeve
I hope I've finally found a band
That's not gonna let me down
I can't believe I've only just discovered the Replacements
How have I only just found out about the Replacements?
Some of them are nearly as old as my parents
How have I only just discovered the Replacements?
Second hand records are cheaper
Reissue CDs, extra tracks
Second hand CDs are cheaper
Reissue CDs, extra tracks
Second hand records are cheaper
Reissue CDs have extra tracks
I can't believe I've only just discovered the Replacements
Some of them are nearly the same age as my parents
I can't believe I've only just discovered the Replacements
Second hand CDs are cheaper
Reissued CDs, extra tracks
