1000 Boys

There's a thousand boys with their hearts in their mouths
 So I hadn't had the heart to spit it out
 That I'm smitten with my worries and my doubts
 No lovelorn prince would ever dare to sing about
 This record's skipping on a sigh
 You should know it's not that I would rather be
 Ambivalent in C
 But I've been quiet for so long
 It's only for the love of song
 That I read these tired letters
 Give me time I will do better
 There's a thousand boys with their knives at their throats
 Fired a thousand rounds out of their mouths before I spoke
 Yeah, I've been feeling low, but I'm not down and out just yet
 Give me a sunny day, maybe sometime in May, I might forget
 This record's skipping on a sigh
 You should know it's not that I would rather be
 Ambivalent in C
 But I've been quiet for so long
 It's only for the love of song
 That I read these tired letters
 Give me time I will do better
 This record's skipping on a sigh
 You should know it's not that I would rather be
 Ambivalent in C
 But I've been quiet for so long
 It's only for the love of song
 That I read these tired letters
 Give me time I will do better, better, better, oh woh woh
