Intro:  
Capo 3

Serenade me with rocks, love
          
No lullabies through the locks, love
            
I locked myself in with the band
                    
But the music's never loud enough

Decibels in the belfry
              
Hey what the hell if it helps me
         
I put a whip to the kick drum
                    
But the music's never loud enough


                        
So you're gonna have to show me
         
How that dance is done
                                
The one where somebody leaves someone


My orchestra is gigantic
This thing could sink the Titanic
And the string section's screaming
Like horses in a barn burning up
He plays pianos with fistfuls
Of broken Belvedere crystal
And he's trying to forget you
But the music's never loud enough

So you're gonna have to show me
How that dance is done
The one where somebody leaves someone


He's impaling the front row
Fighting fires with arrows
And he'll act like he forgot you
But the music's never loud enough

So you're gonna have to show me
How that dance is done
The one where somebody leaves someone
