lyrics

I read the story on Facebook
About the girl with a broken heart
She was trying to put it back together
Not knowing where to start
She was hungry and she was sad
As anyone would be
She hadn’t ate a thing since Friday
So she headed down to KFC

She needed some time to figure it out
She needed some time to think
So she ordered a box of chicken wings
Large fries and a drink
Now everybody’s laughing
You ought to hear the way they speak
About the girl who stopped for chicken wings
And stayed for the rest of the week

You can laugh buckets of tears
Or cry barrels of laughter
You can watch the world go by
But it only leaves you sadder
You can spy on people’s lives
And think it doesn’t matter
The easy part is looking
The hard part’s ever after

Heartbreak as entertainment
And a story you couldn’t make up
Lots of laughs for lots of folks
What’s there not to love?
People want to read this stuff
The Internet has spoken
She should have known better than
To let her heart get broken

Some people like gardening, working on cars or woodworking. Others enjoy knitting, collecting stamps or coins. That kind of thing. I like writing songs.
