Lyrics

Well, she looks so good on the outside,
and i'm thinkin', even that won't last.
She'll talk real big , just to make you feel small,
she'll cheat and lie, then she'll have to talk real, real fast.
- pre -chorus -
and she's not feelin' all that good about herself,
if all she can do is sit there, and put me down
could it be she's been placed somewhere high up on a shelf?
and i'm the closest,...easiest,...most vulnerable,....target around,
-chorus-
Noel,...isn't well,...Noel,...oh well,
Noel,...isn't well,...Noel,...oh well.

Well, at first she'll praise you out loud,
then she'll, turn around and, talk behind your back,
keeps tryin' to fill that empty place inside,
could it be that, true freinds, are what she lacks?
- pre-chorus-
-chorus-
bridge: I find it kinda funny that she'll take the time to heckle me,
i would gladly let her get up here and play a song or two or three,
but she hasn't got the courage, or the ability..............
but i do!
So she knows how to walk just right,
i must admit,...i watched her walk on by,
but she don't know nothin' 'bout the rules of life,
so she gets caught up in her lies & lies & lies & lies & lies,
- pre -chorus-
- chorus -
