Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You're as great a liar as a lover

Lousy

Your hand me down blouses, pissed on by mouses

Lousy

Shanty townhouses

Living in the rubble

Doozy

Still kept to making trouble

Woozy

Throwing rocks at the passing train

It's been a while since it rained

[Verse 2]

In the desert since December

The coldest I remember

And then a drought

My doubt became my reason

When I spoke with conviction

[Refrain]

Get out of my house

Get out of my house

Get out of my house

Get out of my house

[Verse 3]

You sorry carnival louse

My spouse, I suppose

Nobody knows

Which way the wind blows

Which way the wind blows

Without putting in your toes

[Refrain]

Lost at sea on a paper boat

Lost at sea on a paper boat

Lost at sea on a paper boat

Lost at sea

[Chorus]

I'm lost at sea on a paper boat

With windy hair and a broken heart

But I never been better

But I never been better

[Chorus]

I'm lost at sea on a paper boat

With windy hair and a broken heart

But I never been better

[Refrain]

Stole my heart

Stole my heart

Stole my heart

Nothing's fair in love and war

[Verse 4]

Bad news travels fast

Doozy

Stole my heart like that

Woozy

[Verse 5]

Hear I, manners make the man

Cold and low down, gave my hand

Who said marriages are made in heaven?

Least said, soonest mended

This pain is open ended

[Verse 6]

They said spilled milk

Ain't no use crying over a dog

Ain't no use crying over

Nothing ventured, nothing gained

I'm not one to complain

Just a little tea talk here to tell you

[Verse 7]

Tell ya how, I never been better

I never been better

Tell ya how, I never been better

I never been better

Tell ya how, I never been better

I never been better

[Refrain]

Stole my heart

Stole my heart

Stole my heart

Nothing's fair in love and war

Like a harlot on a holy day

Like a harlot on a holy day

[Verse 8]

Happy as a harlot on a holiday

I'm happy as a harlot on a holiday

[Chorus]

I'm lost at sea on a paper boat

With windy hair and a broken heart

But I never been better

But I never been better

[Chorus]

I'm lost at sea on a paper boat

With windy hair and a broken heart

But I never been better

But I never been better

[Outro]

I'm lost at sea on a paper boat

With windy hair and a broken heart

But I never been better

But I never been better
