it's always the sentimental heart that betrays what's on its mind
and I'm always slipping out the back for rehearsal time
in the classroom drifting between your smile
haven't grown up since like I was Billy Brown
how I was I supposed to know you shouldn't always be nice
left by myself while they out feasting
they're trying to exile me
they always ask why are you saying that
why are you saying that
I'm saying it because it's the truth
it's always the sentimental heart that betrays what's on its mind
and I'm always slipping out the back for rehearsal time
if I can be told no
if I can be told no
if I can be told no
well maybe I can tell it too
if you've got nothing just give us nothing
all of this shit is just one big Macguffin
they always ask why are you saying that
why are you saying that
I'm saying it because it's the truth
it's always the sentimental heart that betrays what's on its mind
and I'm always slipping out the back for rehearsal time
I said it's always the sentimental heart that betrays what's on its mind
and I'm always slipping out the back for rehearsal time
if I can be told no
if I can be told no
if I can be told no
well maybe I can tell it too
