Archie Star Lyrics
"Speak Up"

Could ya speak up,
I can't hear a word your saying,
Just, call when you get home,
So, you drank and he drove,
You've got more excuses then a hospital's got patients,
And I'm losing my patience with you.

Could ya,
Breath it burn it down until the filters,
All that you have left, he was pulling up your dress,
You got more excuses then a hospitals got patients,
And I'm losing my patience with you.

The phone is on the counter and it's 3AM,
And I'm driving past his house so I can call you again,
And I'm looking through his window and I see you there,
Sitting around in that guilt you wear.
So come on,
You're only pretty when you want something,
You're only pretty when you're leaving me,
And right now you're beautiful.

So she walks in to our one bedroom apartment,
Why did you come home?
She says leave her alone, she said,
I give her headaches cause she was drinking with her friends anyway,
What the f*ck is it to you?

Could ya,
Speak up tell me what the f*ck your doing,
Sleeping in his bed,
Drinking off your dress, I know..
Everything, sweetie you don't have to say a thing,
Sweetie you don't have to say a thing.

She's sleeping at her mother's and it's been five days,
My father says the Greek women never change,
Well I'm looking through your window and I see you there,
Sitting around in your underwear, so come on,
You're only pretty when you want something,
You're only pretty when you're leaving me,
And right now you're beautiful,
And right now you're beautiful,

Sometimes our lives get written up in chalk,
And the rain comes to wash them all away. (x2)

So come on, you're only pretty when you want something,
You're only pretty when you're leaving me,
And right now you're beautiful,
Right now she is beautiful.
