Lyrics
Hearts Club Band
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.
There was that song you wrote
About the king who went broke
It was the story of you
From the point of view
Of your death bed blues
And you will never believe
In me again
Until that final day when you
You sign, you sign out
In that questionable way
You always wrote a song a day
And there were always words
And it made me want to say
"Shut up"
I'm in the Hearts Club
I'm in the Hearts Club Band
And I'm not ever ever
Coming back
I ride on the back
Of your life
But I never
Take your advice
You were cruel
In a different way
Than I was used to
And you have
The funniest smile
I've ever seen
You look, you look
Better under water
Where my eyes can't see
The details in the face
Of who you pretend to be
You always wrote a song a day
And there was never room
For yesterday's news
I'm on the back end of you
I'm in the Hearts Club
I'm in the Hearts Club Band
And I'm not ever ever
Coming back
I'm in the Hearts Club
I'm in the Hearts Club Band
And I'm not ever
No I'm not, no I'm not
Ever ever coming back
