Heartbeat Blues

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
