I'm writing a song all about you   A true song as real as my tears      But you've no need to fear it   'Cause no one will hear it   Sad songs and waltzes   Aren't selling this year      I'll tell all about how you cheated   I'd like for the whole world to hear      I'd like to get even   With you 'cause you're leavin'   But sad songs and waltzes   Aren't selling this year      It's a good thing that I'm not a star   You don't know how lucky you are      Though my record may say it   No one will play it   Sad songs and waltzes   Aren't selling this year      It's a good thing that I'm not a star   You don't know how lucky you are      Though my record may say it   No one will play it   Sad songs and waltzes   Aren't selling this year
