Not Another Love Song

Not another love song

Doesn't matter where I go, can't escape the radio

In the car, in the bar, even at my Auntie Jo's

You left, I stayed, another sad song played

Wishing I was Van Gogh, I'd chop my bloody ears off

And every single word is like they talking right to me

Every time they play 'em, well, I get so moody

You're the one that made the songs make sense to me

Wishing you were back with me, it makes me loopy

'Cause you let me go, and I  wanna know

'Cause everything that I hear is just so overblown

Now I'm alone so I'm going home

And then I'm gettin' in the bath with my radio

Not another love song

Now the one I love's gone

Not another love song

Tell the DJ, go and do one

Orchestrated partings  playing on my heartstrings

Pick the sound of silence or the violence of violins

Cliched writings, suddenly I'm biting

Fighting back, choking up, go turn down the lighting

I'm remember when we were inseparable

I sang you love songs, you used to love 'em all

But now I feel a fool, I'm hysterical

I take out all my records and I smash 'em up against the wall

'Cause you let me go, and I wanna know

'Cause everything that I hear is just so overblown

Now I'm alone so I'm going home

And then I'm gettin' in the bath with my radio

Not another love song

Now the one I love's gone

Not another love song

Tell the DJ, go and do one

Our island's in the stream

When we were rolling in the deep

Now I'm tearing out my hair and I'm listening to Creep

You were swift to make an exit, we ain't never gettin' back

If I have to hear it one more time I just might crack

Heading in the wrong direction and I'm 5 seconds too late

Turns out you got another man and I ain't got a date

I can't take another melody, don't want no balladeers

So I'm sitting here alone with my fingers in my ears goin'

Not another love song

Now the one I love's gone

Not another love song

Tell the DJ, go and do one
