Lyrics

I'm writing a song all about you

I am composing a song specifically about you.

A true song as real as my tears

A genuine song, reflecting the authenticity of my tears.

But you've no need to fear it

There's no need for you to be afraid of the song.

'Cause no one will hear it

Because no one will listen to it.

Sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year

Sad songs and waltzes are not popular or marketable this year.


I'll tell all about how you cheated

I will disclose details of how you betrayed me.

I'd like for the whole world to hear

I wish the entire world could hear about it.

I'd like to get even

I want to retaliate against you because you are leaving.

With you 'cause you're leavin'

However, sad songs and waltzes are not popular this year.

But sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year

(Reiteration of the theme that the mentioned song won't sell well)


It's a good thing that I'm not a star

It's fortunate that I am not a celebrity.

You don't know how lucky you are

You may not realize how fortunate you are.

Though my record may say it

Even if my record suggests otherwise.

No one will play it

No one will play the song mentioned.

Sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year (alright)

Reiteration that sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year.


It's a good thing that I'm not a star

Reiteration of the fortunate aspect of not being a star.

You don't know how lucky you are

Highlighting the luck of the person who is not aware of their fortune.

Though my record may say it

Even if my record claims success, it won't be played.

No one will play it

No one will play the mentioned sad songs and waltzes.

Sad songs and waltzes aren't selling this year (alright)

Final reiteration that sad songs and waltzes are not selling this year.
