Baby Please Go

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Paul Heaton] You've heard it said a thousand times But only heard his Broadway lines So, baby, please go Ain't, ain't part of the show 'Cause when Romeo needs no cue or prompt The likelier your little heart be stomped By, by, baby, don't go Written, written into his show [Pre-Chorus: Heaton & Dave Hemingway] 'Cause in the West End show, your life Played understudy to every part Got given all the dullest lines Whilst the chorus girls danced on your heart [Chorus: Heaton, Hemingway] Baby, please go Baby, please go Baby, please go Baby, please go [Verse 2: Heaton, Hemingway] The sorry tale we'd all applaud That only dripped and never poured But, baby just go (Ooh, ooh) Let him, let him on with his show (Ooh, ooh) The leading snail leaves tell tale lines The bullshit tower the loudest chimes But, baby please go (Ooh, ooh) Ain't, ain't part of the show (Ooh, ooh) [Pre-Chorus: Heaton & Hemingway] 'Cause in the West End show, your life Played understudy to every part Got given all the dullest lines Whilst the chorus girls danced on your heart [Chorus: Heaton, Hemingway] Baby, please go Baby, please go Baby, please go Baby, please go [Bridge: Heaton, Heaton & Hemingway] Romantic love lines that we adored Baby, forget them They were read by men from idiot board Baby, forget them So a message from the wisest guy to broad Is best like flattery ignored [Outro: Heaton & Hemingway] Baby, just let him go Let him on with the show Baby, just let him go Let him on with the show
