lyrics

Well, I told you I'd love you 'til the day I die.
If I died right now you know that I would not have lied.
And you know that I fall to pieces when you go.
And when you hang up I just sit and count them all.

Oh, what a racket. Oh, what a scheme.
I've been fooled. I've been dooped. I've been hosed.
Oh, what a racket. Ten points off the top.
And you'll collect. Yeah, you bet.

Well, you told me to stop writing songs about your life.
Well, why? You're life is more interesting than mine.
And if I can not write about my love, well, tell me now what am I supposed to write about?

Oh, what a racket.
Oh, what a sound that rings out from my big mouth.
My love is a racket. My love is so loud.
White noise to be ignored.
Shhhh...
