You opened your mouth and the words just tumbled out Like marbles on the pavement And scattered like a nest of flies And every thought you'd bottled up inside, no matter how small Stole to the cracks of the walls of your living room to hide As part of living monument And you don't have to say it twice I was there for the first time You don't have to tell me lies You opened your mouth and the words just stuttered out A poor player in an unrehearsed part Bruised ego passed off as broken heart The audience an afterthought And you don't have to say it twice I was there for the first time You don't have to tell me lies She comes around, she says 'I'm over it now' You come around but baby I'm over it now So just turn around And you don't have to say it twice You don't have to tell me lies
