The Poet Songtext
I'm not saying he's like a Shakespeare or Poe (La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
But you'll eat it up before you even know (La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
All of the words fit perfect together
Used as a weapon, I should've known better (La-la-la-da-da)
You're just a poet (La-da-da-da)
And you fucking know it (La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
Hey
(La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
(Oh, La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
It starts with the right lines at all the right times (La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
It's hard to resist when he makes you the rhyme (La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
His kiss is the pen and you're just the paper
He'll tear you apart sooner than latеr (La-la-la-da-da)
He's just a poet (La-da-da-da, oh, la-la-la-da-da)
And you fucking know it
It's almost like
Evеry single word's been rehearsed 'til it hurts
They both sound pretty when they're dragging in the dirt
You talked 'bout love and made it sound so good
(La-la-la-da-da)
You're just a poet (La-la-la-da-da, oh, la-la-da-da-da)
And you fucking know it (La-da-da-da)
You talked 'bout love (You talked' bout love)
And made it sound so good (So good) You talked 'bout love
You talked' bout love
And made it sound so good
(La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da, oh)
(La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
It's almost like
Every single word's been rehearsed 'til it hurts
They both sound pretty when they're dragging in the dirt
You talked 'bout love and made it sound so good
(La-la-la-da-da)
You're just a poet (La-da-da-da, oh, la-la-la-da-da)
And you fucking know it (La-da-da-da)
You're just a poet (La-da-da-da, oh, la-la-la-da-da)
And you fucking know it (La-da-da-da)
But you'll eat it up before you even know (La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
All of the words fit perfect together
Used as a weapon, I should've known better (La-la-la-da-da)
You're just a poet (La-da-da-da)
And you fucking know it (La-la-la-da-da, la-da-da-da)
