Moral of the Story (November 27, 2012)

from Does a Painter C'est What? by Paint

/

lyrics

[Intro]

Yeah!
Yeah!

[Verse 1]

My confidence is a front, like everyone's
Why cry over those who won't over you?
If you're going to leave without a reason
Then just don't come crawling with an excuse

[Chorus]

The moral of the story, then?
Oh, what's the moral of the story, then?
We speak only in words unsaid
Oh, what's the moral of the story, then?

[Post-Chorus]

Oh, oh, woah, oh
Woah, wah-ah-oh

[Verse 2]

Stop the clock but it keeps on movin'
Honey, don't look back at what's in front of you
When the ground beneath you won't stop shakin'
Make sure there are hands all over you

[Chorus]

The moral of the story, then?
Oh, what's the moral of the story, then?
We speak only in words unsaid
Oh, what's the moral of the story, then?

[Bridge]

Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah

[Chorus]

The moral of the story, then?
Oh, what's the moral of the story, then?
We speak only in words unsaid
Oh, what's the moral of the story, then?

[Last Chorus]

Love is never easy, man
Oh, don't worry now, the queen is dead
It's better when it's in your head
Oh, what's the moral of the story, then?

[Breakdown]

Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah

[Outro]

Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!
