Show Don't Tell Lyrics

If he's gonna save ya

Uou wanna keep him around

If she's gonna sacrifice herself

She's sound as a pound

Ooh!

But if he's just a white knight

With words of sweetness oh

Chances are he's faking

Hiding something from you

Ooh!

Cos being good feels good enough to me

Being blind is where I wanna be

Don't be the guy who's saying "look at me"

Do I have to scream and yell?

Show don't tell!

Don't tell me how to be good

I don't need lessons from you

The shiny words from your mouth

Don't synchronise with your truth

Ooh!

Cos if you need a high five

For not being a douche

You made it about yourself again

So tell that fool to vamoose!

Ooh!

Cos being good feels good enough to me

Being blind is where I wanna be

Don't be the guy who's saying "look at me"

Do I have to scream and yell?

Show don't tell!

I'm not gonna waste my time

Talking to a waste of time

If you have to explain your holiness baby

You ain't going near my loving kind

Cos that's not kind!

Show don't tell!

Show don't tell!

Show don't tell!

Oow!

Every time you seek love

It's one step closer to hell

Cos checking on your neighbour

Is a reward in itself

Ooh!

Cos no one likes a white knight

Who only thinks of himself

Listen to your heart my friend

It's saying show don't tell

Ooh!

Cos being good feels good enough to me

Being blind is where I wanna be

Don't be the guy who's saying "look at me"

Do I have to scream and yell?

Show don't tell!
