lyrics

My Heart

Effigy’s just one of
Many places I've been burned
I left my love there somewhere
But it never was returned
My heart was on my sleeve
When she took me to the cleaners
They even got the stain out
With some shots of Mr Meanor's*

But that’s all right
It’s okay
’cos I didn't really need it anyway
Well that’s all right
It’s okay
’cos I never really used it anyway

My heart
My heart

Once upon another time,
Back when I had my shirt
She rolled my heart in honey
Then she stomped it in the dirt
I asked her why she treated me
So good and then so bad
She smiled and said that
It was just this hobby that she had

But that’s all right
It’s okay
’cos I didn't really need it anyway
Well that’s all right
It’s okay ’cos I never really used it anyway

My heart
My heart

My heart
My heart
My heart
My heart

Every now and sometimes
When I think I’d like it back
My memory repeats for me
Her signature attack
She’d throw down the gauntlet
And when I bent to retrieve it
Her knee would meet my mouth
Encouraging my teeth to leave it

But that’s all right
It’s okay
’cos I didn't really need them anyway
Well that’s all right
It’s okay ’cos I never really used them anyway

My heart
My heart …

* Mr Meanor's Patent Tonic and Stain Remover
