Silly Thing
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.
What you see, you can get
Nothing's free, nothing's said
Don't be fooled by the signs
Don't read in between the lines
What you're gonna say
What you're gonna do
Now you've missed out once again
But I thought you knew
Oh, you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh, you silly thing
You really gone and done it now
Trouble here, trouble there
People stop just to stare
What's the use of wasting time
Just move on, leave 'em all behind
What you're gonna say
What you're gonna do
Now you've missed out once again
But I thought you knew
Oh, you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh, you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Can't you ever depend
On someone you call a friend
When you see the naked eyes
You don't even ask 'em why
You don't even ask 'em why
Oh, you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
Oh, you silly thing
You've really gone and done it now
