[Verse 1]
Woe be to the girl who loves a songwriter
The days are pages in the book
He's the verse and you're the hook
Woe be to the girl who loves a songwriter

[Verse 2]
Woe be to the man who loves a songwriter
She's always searching for the song
In everything that you've done wrong
Woe be to the man who loves a songwriter

[Chorus]
La la loo lee, is what it might be
La da da do, a key and a voice
La la loo lee, we write history, babe
Oh oh, la la la lo, is how the song goes
Whoa oh, la la loo lee

[Verse 3]
Hard is the time before the melody
Before the song is tight-bowed
And what you never seem to know
Oh, hard is the time before the melody

[Instrumental Bridge]
[Outro]
Woe be to the girl who loves a songwriter
When his eye's a microphone
She ends up feeling so alone
Woe be to the girl who loves a songwriter
