Story Behind The Song
After talking to my friend one night and listening to one of his many rants about how this girl didn't work and that girl didn't work, and blah blah. Coupled with the same call from a girl friend of mine with the same story only with a female spin....this song came about (rather quickly after the phone was put down).

Lyrics
Buck up young man
Give it a rest
Don't take it so personal
She didn't know what she said would have this effect
I guarantee this too shall pass
Don't take it so personal
From now on just be happy by yourself
All the boys and girls have fallen
All the boys and girls have fallen
All the boys and girls have fallen
For a great big lie
Chin up young miss
Save that kiss
For something more personal
Don't settle for some ring
That'll never bring you what you wanted
I guarantee your coach will come
And make you feel like Cinderella
Keep that glass slipper on
And just be happy with yourself
All the boys and girls have fallen
All the boys and girls have fallen
All the boys and girls have fallen
For a great big lie
