No More Ballads lyrics

Don't look so surprised

At me showing up

You're so good at lies

And bad at growing up

I know all you've got

And your famous face

But you're an idiot

And a public disgrace

You have the sweetest voice

That can so impress

But we both know now

That it's meaningless

How it breaks my heart

When I hear you sing

That your words of love

Don't mean anything

Sing no more ballads

I can't hear them any more

I could forgive you

But not your ballads

They're much too fake to ignore

Don't say "it's me not you"

And how sad you are

Boy, if not adieu

It must be au revoir

I know what you are

And how much you make

You're a superstar

But your love songs

Are fake

You're a superstar

And a public disgrace

Sing no more ballads

I can't hear them any more

I could forgive you

But not your ballads

They're much too fake to ignore

How it breaks my heart

When I hear you sing

That your words of love

Never really meant a thing

Sing no more ballads

I can't hear them any more

I could forgive you

But not your ballads

They're much too fake to ignore

I could forgive you

But not your ballads

They're much too fake to ignore
