lyrics

HEARTBREAK KINGS


1. They see me coming from miles away
The heartbreak kings will have field day
I know their M.O., but still I find
I fall for them almost every single time.
Heartbreak Kings, Heartbreak Kings
They buy you drinks & they hide their wedding rings
Heartbreak Kings, Heartbreak Kings
They promise gifts & cars & rides in limousines
I’ve got to get away from all these Heartbreak Kings

2. I fell right into another trap
This loverboy had me sitting on his lap
He kissed my neck & he told me I looked swell
And pretty soon I was on that path to hell…

Heartbreak Kings, Heartbreak Kings
They buy you drinks & they hide their wedding rings
Heartbreak Kings, Heartbreak Kings
They whisper in your ear “ain’t you a pretty thing?”
I’ve got to get away from all these Heartbreak Kings

3. I love mechanics, and even cops
I dig bike messengers & guys in coffee shops
And it don’t matter what he does for a living
‘Cuz almost any man could be a Heartbreak King

Heartbreak Kings, Heartbreak Kings
They promise gifts & cars & rides in limousines
Heartbreak Kings, Heartbreak Kings
They whisper in your ear “ain’t you a pretty thing?”
I’ve got to get away from all these Heartbreak Kings
How can I walk away from all these Heartbreak Kings?
