Heartbeat Blues - Dave Monks

Cheerleaders hate me

Librarians too

I look at them they look at me

And i realize they’re looking through

Shopgirls ignore me

And the hookers all boo

I disappear in front of them

As i walk along the avenue

Cause i got nobody

I must be cold-blooded

And i wonder if they hear my heartbeat blues

The dirt on my collar the cracks in my skin

They never say a word to me

Like i’m just some kinda mannequin

Out on the schoolyard

And down on the street

I cross my heart and hope to die

There will be someone there for me

Cause i got nobody

I must be cold-blooded

And i wonder if they hear my heartbeat blues yeah

Tell me a story

I got a heart that makes the sound of a rockin' band

Where are you going

A happy ending doesn’t happen til the audience stands

Tell me a story

I got a hundred pages written on the back of my hand

Where are you going

I got a heart and you can have it if you let me be your men

I got nobody

I must be cold-blooded

And i wonder if they heart my heartbeat blues
