About the Artist
Lyrics
Well, once I gave a look to you But you never gave it back So here I stand expressionless But my memory's intact I guess the past is good for a laugh A comedy so dry and black It makes my stomach hurt so bad, I cried So two thumbs up we give this one Despite it's predictable ending The dialogue seemed rushed and wrong But the actors did their best To lay some worth on every word Like coffins dropped into the earth The saddest sound we ever heard, we sang along We sang it, "Take this weight away" We sang it, "Take this weight away" We're singing! We're singing, "Take this weight away" Away Away
