[Verse 1] He saw no tears in her eyes Say you wouldn't kid about it She's telling all of those lies She swore she'd never told before But I doubt it So he bit his tongue And tried hard to capture his breath When she said I waited all my life For just a little death [Chorus] Say you wouldn't kid about it Say you wouldn't kid about it Say you wouldn't kid about it Say you wouldn't kid about it [Bridge] Sometimes he takes himself so seriously She makes her movements mysteriously Slow fast or furiously It's a big responsibility With a face full of mixed ability Big dreams of elegance Singing The Leaving of Liverpool And turning into Americans Say you wouldn't kid about it [Verse 2] So what if this is a man's world I want to be a kid again about it Give me back my sadness I couldn't hide it even if I tried girl We fight so frail Making love tooth and nail You gave me the kiss of my life I might even live to tell the tale [Chorus] Say you wouldn't kid about it Say you wouldn't kid about it Say you wouldn't kid about it
