[Verse 1]
Don't look so surprised
At me showing up
You're so good at lies
And bad at growing up
I know all you've got
And your famous face
But you're an idiot
And a public disgrace

[Verse 2]
You have have the sweetest voice
That can so impress
But we both know now
That it's meaningless
How it breaks my heart
When I hear you sing
That your words of love
Don't mean anything

[Chorus]
Sing no more ballads
I can't hear them any more
I could forgive you
But not your ballads
They're much too fake to ignore

[Verse 3]
Don't say "it's me not you"
And how sad you are
Boy, if not adieu
It must be au revoir
I know what you are
And how much you make
You're a superstar
But your love songs
Are fake
You're a superstar
And a public disgrace

[Chorus]
Sing no more ballads
I can't hear them any more
I could forgive you
But not your ballads
They're much too fake to ignore

[Verse 4]
How it breaks my heart
When I hear you sing
That your words of love
Never really meant a thing

[Chorus]
Sing no more ballads
I can't hear them any more
I could forgive you
But not your ballads
They're much too fake to ignore
I could forgive you
But not your ballads
They're much too fake to ignore
