lyrics

Oh, the people they listen
Listen in the places you go
You try to tell them a story
But it just makes them miserable
Nobody knows for sure exactly what this means
Baby bullet tambourine
I asked you twice what the heck that means
Baby bullet tambourine
Something you read in a magazine
Oh, the people they listen
Then their ringing on the telephone
All gonna tell me about her terrible time
It just makes me miserable

Baby bullet tambourine
I asked you twice what the heck that means
Baby bullet tambourine
It's something you read in a magazine
Oh, the people they listen
Listen in the places you go
You try to tell them a story
But it just makes them miserable
No one can listen every single day
You got to find a place to stick it away
Ew-we \ why do you call me?
Ew-we \ why do you try me?
Ew-we \ telling me stories
Ew-we \ getting pretty corny
She thinks it’s a kind of glory
To get stabbed in the back every day
She keeps changing the story
It’s getting worse every way
Well the telephone rings, I’m picking up the line
She’s always gonna tell me about her terrible time

When devotion is corrosive
The mind is better than emotion
you try not to forget all the good days
Before you started walking on in this maze
You’ve had a few drinks and feeling bold
Telling things that should never be told
You’re gonna break down before you get old
If life's all about getting your gold
