| It's always heavy keeping your head down |
| Another town to tiptoe around and |
| Isn't it easy when you're feeling sorry |
| Again it hurts to pretend to pretend |
|
| Better get out while you still can |
| Better get out, put your heart on the stand |
| Too many times runnin' away |
| Better just say what you're thinking |
|
| A new apartment, no vaulted ceilings |
| You bought some flowers just to muster up the feeling like |
| You might discover twenty whole dollars |
| Inside a coat with a note from a ghost saying |
|
| Better get out while you still can |
| You can get by but you might need a friend |
| Time to get out of your own way |
| Better just say what you're thinking |
|
| Not what you want you want cuz you never really had it |
| Get what you need but you know you can't stand a chance |
| Figure it out get a little bit sappy |
| Head on a swivel didn't notice you'd been dancing |
|
| Better get out while you still can |
| You can get by but you might need a friend |
| Time to get out of your own way |
| Better just say what you're thinking |
|
| Ooh, put your heart on the stand |
| Ooh, better just say what you're thinking |
|
