I'll Cry Instead

I've got every reason on earth to be mad
'Cause I've just lost the only girl I've had
And if I could get my way, I'd get myself locked up today
But I can't so I cry instead

I've got a chip on my shoulder that's bigger than my feet
I can't talk to people that I meet
If I could see you now, I'd try to make you sad somehow
But I can't so I cry instead

Don't want to cry when there's people there
I get shy when they stop and stare
I'm gonna hide myself away
But I'll come back again someday

And when I do, you'd better hide all the girls
'Cause I'm gonna break the hearts all 'round the world
Yes, I'm gonna break 'em in two
And show you what a loving man can do
But 'til then, I'll cry instead

Don't want to cry when there's people there
I get shy when they stop and stare
I'm gonna hide myself away
But I'll come back again someday

And when I do, you'd better hide all the girls
'Cause I'm gonna break the hearts all 'round the world
Yes, I'm gonna break 'em in two
And show you what a loving man can do
But 'til then, I'll cry instead
