Intro
Verse 1
My Best Friend Moves Away This Year,
To Live Across The Pond,
Although He Hasn’t Left Quite Yet,
It’s Feeling Like He’s Gone.
Grandpa’s Growing Down These Days,
Forgetting How To Be,
But It’s No Fun To Think On That,
And Hurts For Me To See.
My Marriage Has Some Question Marks,
Not Sure Why We’re Together,
I Haven’t Felt The Love From Her,
In What Seems To Be Forever.
My Sister Lost A Child This Year,
And Words Do Not Describe,
How Tough It Is For Pain Like That To Hide...
Chorus
I’m Pretty Tired Of The Sad Songs, I’ve
Run Out Of Tears And Need Some Smiles,
Shame These Days The Muse Can Be A Cynic,
Only Tribulation And Its Trial.
I Could Write A Ballad And It Wouldn’t Be Wrong,
But, I Don’t Wanna Write That Song.
Verse 2
Last Week We Put The Dog Down,
It Was What We Had To Do.
It Wasn’t Up To Us To Say,
What He Could Suffer Through.
My Son Is Off To College Now,
In A Faraway Town,
The Things That Never Hit Is,
Are The Things That Break Us Down...
Bridge
Sad Songs, They Feel Too Real.
Sad Songs, They Hit Too Hard.
Sad Songs, They Age Too Well,
Show Us All The Places That We’ve Scarred...
Chorus
I’m Sick 'N Tired Of The Sad Songs, I’m
Fresh Out Of Tears And Want Some Smiles,
Bummer That The Muse Is Such A Cynic,
Only Tribulation And Its Trial.
I Could Write A Ballad And It Wouldn’t Be Wrong,
But, I Don’t Wanna Write That Song.
Post Chorus
No, I Don’t Think A Ballad, Would Do Me Any Wrong,
But I Don’t Wanna Write That Song.
Sure, I Could Carry Sadness,
But I’d Rather Carry On,
‘Cause I Don’t Wanna Write
I Don't Wanna Write
I Don't Wanna Write
That Song!
