Who would take a broken heart?
Ugly and slower than some
Who would want a silent talker?
Who would want second-hand love?
No lady needs a tattered dress
From a bombed charity shop
No one hopes first for a second-try
Or a love proved to drop.
I can offer a collage of love
To somebody someday
But I couldn't give an accurate
Self-portrait
I can give you what I gave her
Though I value it a little less
If I could give you even a sad smile
I confess I’d feel blessed
Who would take a broken heart?
Ugly and slower than some
Who would want a silent talker?
Who would want second-hand love?
There’s a sale on for all of me
No, don’t all rush at once
I’ll make you take a second look
Make sure I’m chosen.
There are elephants in my mind
They’re spectacular, but they’re hers
My heads filled with stamping
It’s really nearly burst
Who would want 4 punctured tyres
A car keyed green to white
Who would want a broken windscreen
And no head-lights.
Who would take a broken heart?
Ugly and slower than some
Who would want a silent talker?
Who would want second-hand love?
