 Some things  are best not spoken
 Some things  are better left unsaid
 But since  this is your  public execution
 I think  I’ll go right on ahead
 The mailman  brought your letter,  babe
 Where you told  me how you feel
 And the things  he said he told  you
 That is  I’m such a heel
I  could never be honest
 And to you  I’ve always lied
 They saw  me take some other  hide
 For a two-wheeled  pony ride----
You  at least might have asked  me
 If the scene  was really what it seemed
 But like a queen  ruled by  her jester
 Your conclusion  was a scheme
 You said I disappointed you
 Whereby all the things I done
 That you had convinced yourself
 I was the only one
 Really make you happy
 Satisfy your soul
 Now you say I’ve failed
 Since we split up all my gold---
 Have you ever seen the truth before
 Have you ever even made a try
 Such I thing for you so impossible
 With them themes all in your eyes
 Whoa, I laughed when you said you had
 One chance to really put me down
 And how you loved to smear my name
 All over my own town
 Said some Mouse made a fool of you
 And said don’t waste a dime
 Your phone is out of order now, babe,
 For me you got no time----
 If this is really what your thinkin’
 That it’s really, really all my fault
 Then you better find yourself a welder, baby
 Cause you got locked up in your vault---
 Yeah, you got your point put over now
 It seems you’ve found a match
 Burn the bridge behind you, babe
 Slam your door, throw the latch
 I know just how your hurtin’
 From your feelings as they burn
 I’d like to say I’m sorry
 But it’s no longer my concern---
 So goodbye
 Go on and have a real good cry
 I've found me a brand new high
 She just loves a two-wheel pony ride
 You better get yourself a welder, babe
 Go on, get out of here...
