Lyrics Martha Wainwright

Martha Wainwright

Hearts Club Band

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
