Joel Plaskett Broken Heart Songs lyrics

(Verse)
I like broken hearts songs but this ain't one of them
I've been stepped to the mic just to tell ya I'm down
I can hear the blues behind me and I'm not runnin' in
With the love on my brain and the feet on the ground
I like precious memories but I'm not faking one
Cuz it's gonna get messy if you're speaking of my own
If I don't make a promise then I won't be breaking one
And if I break your heart you don't get to break mine

(Chorus)
There are so many things to be angry about
Maybe we can take just a quick time-out
Cuz there was somebody suffered in the room next door
Grabbed her by the hand, pulled her all onto the dance floor

(Verse 2)
What you call country music sounds more like Bon Jovi
You used to piss me off, now it kinda turns me on

Just because you knew me doesn't mean you know me
Just because I'm right, that doesn't mean you're wrong

(Chorus)
There are so many things to be angry about
Maybe we can take just a quick time-out
Cuz there was somebody suffered in the room next door
My hands start clapping when the going gets tough
This right here is when you're tearing me up

(Verse 3)
I don't want a _____(?), I don't want no altercation
I pretend it's Christmas and wish upon a star
I pour a glass of whiskey, then wait for inspiration
And if it don't show up, I still got my guitar
