Get Your Boots On

Walking on eggshells,

You've been tiptoeing around,

Making excuses,

Every time he puts you down,

So I force another smile,

And tell you some sweet little lie,

Cause the truth is harder to hear.

Don't take a rocket scientist

To know you can't go on like this,

So get your boots on,

You've got to move on.

Don't take a genius to know,

That you'd be better off alone,

So get your coat, don't leave a number,

You've been poison to each other too long,

Get your boots on.

It's not the first time,

You've got into this mess,

Yeah he's a nice guy,

But then so were all the rest.

And I hate to see the sparkle in your eyes begin to fade,

While you wait for something to change.

Don't take a rocket scientist

To know you can't go on like this,

So get your boots on,

You've got to move on.

Don't take a genius to know,

That you'd be better off alone,

So get your coat, don't leave a number,

You've been poison to each other too long,

Cause it ain't it over,

Until it's over

And it's been over for a long, long time.

So don't explain, apologize,

Don't say you'll sleep on it tonight,

Cause you'll just change your mind.

Don't take a rocket scientist

To know you can't go on like this,

So get your boots on,

You've got to move on.

Don't take a genius to know,

That you'd be better off alone,

So get your coat, don't leave a number,

You've been poison to each other too long,

Don't take a rocket scientist

To know you can't go on like this,

So get your boots on,

You've got to move on.

Don't take a genius to know,

That you'd be better off alone,

So get your coat, don't leave a number,

You've been poison to each other for too long,

Get your boots on.
