lyrics

I could never do what other people do
I could never have that power over you
Playing it cool is cool for cool kids
Keeping your options open
Baby our cool is broke and busted
We need more than a record to put our hope in

I don’t write the songs
That seem to entrance you
I don’t write the songs
They’re too slow to dance to
I don’t write the songs
Making you feel this way

The history of us is never gonna rhyme
I won’t spill the beans three minutes at a time
Everyone’s big on true confessions
I never want to go there
Might as well stick with first impressions
Not a trail of breadcrumbs that leads you nowhere

I don’t write the songs
That get where your head’s at
I don’t write the songs
Someone else does that
I don’t write the songs
Making you feel OK

Sad pretty girls with boyfriend issues
Killing the vibe at parties
You drift away and I start to miss you
Have another drink and put on some Cardi

I don’t write the songs
I like the fast ones
I don’t write the songs
Not like the last one
I don’t write the songs
Stealing your heart away

I don’t write the songs
I’m just a phoney
I don’t write the songs
Do I look like Joni?
I don’t write the songs
Making you feel this way
