Swing the Heartache
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.
Out of her mouth it came as no surprise
Lipstick stained on whipcream lies
I feel that if I had been uglier
It would have been easier
There it sat, blinked and spat
In a black feather hat
And said the rat
I now possess quasi success
But she wants to be a better singer
Swing the heartache
Just for her sake
But she wants to be a better singer
Swing the heartache
Just for her sake
