Lyrics
You sang me your song of remorse
Forgive me if I answered coldly
But just like a broken record
You've been repeating the lies that you told me.
You swore it was only a kiss
That you didn't do it on purpose
But just like a broken record
Your little story's only scratching the surface
The needle drops, round and round we go
The melody makes me high though the fidelity is low
But you've pressed your luck darling running amok
No you can't wax poetic and just hope that I'll forget it
Oh I won't keep spinning in vain
With a lover whose past is so checkered
So I'm skipping out on you dear
Just like your favorite old broken record.
