(Trying to Get to) the Part That Really Matters
Proclaimers · This is the Story [1987]
Don't get me wrongDon't mind you shoutingJust think
your style excludesThe part that really mattersJust
grow tiredOf empty minds mouthingEnglish language coursesWhile
they struggle with the a b c of heartAnd I confessThat
all I've learntHas been learnt a million timesBy every
empty heartThat ever felt a song come homeBut I'd he
happyWhen next I ask the time11 I find I've wasted
none of mineListening while you wasted all of yours.
