Shoot the Poets (Live At The Cavern Club 2020)

[Intro]
This is where we're gonna really—
This is where we're really gonna miss the crowd for—
Just have to sing along at home

[Verse 1]
Cut off your nose to spite your friends
Breathing holes that will never end, and
Speak all you want or just pretend
Because she thinks she is a different class
So she sits all day by the looking glass, and
It doesn't talk, it doesn't last

[Chorus]
But it's not what I've heard, you know
A picture speaks a thousand words
But, baby, don't feel down
I left my heart in a provincial town, yeah

[Verse 2]
You sold your souls for magic beans
Don't bеlieve all you read on computеr screens, oh
These things, they mean nothing to me
Ripped and stained, came off the track
You go there once then you don't come back, oh
Good, that's what I say

[Chorus]
But it's not what I've heard, you know it
Cut your losses, shoot the poets
Or one day, you'll come down
To find yourself in a provincial town, yeah

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
But it's not what I've heard, you know
A picture speaks a thousand words
But, baby, don't feel down
I left my heart in a provincial town, yeah
But it's not what I've heard, you know it
Cut your losses, shoot the poets
Or one day, you'll come down, oh
To find yourself in a provincial town, yeah

[Outro]
