Excuse Me, I Think I've Got a Heartache Lyrics
They just don't know how lost I feel without you
My teardrops never see the light of day
I laugh and joke and paint a bright tomorrow
But if I told the truth I'd have to say...
Excuse me, I think I've got a heartache
There's an aching deep inside
And it just won't be denied
Excuse me, I think I've got a heartache
And I'd better say goodbye
Before I cry
I guess it's pride that makes me hide my sorrow
I live a lie in all I do and say
My lips may lie and paint a bright tomorrow
But if I told the truth I'd have to say...
Excuse me, I think I've got a heartache
There's an aching deep inside
And it just won't be denied
Excuse me, I think I've got a heartache
And I'd better say goodbye
Before I cry
My teardrops never see the light of day
I laugh and joke and paint a bright tomorrow
But if I told the truth I'd have to say...
There's an aching deep inside
And it just won't be denied
And I'd better say goodbye
Before I cry
I live a lie in all I do and say
My lips may lie and paint a bright tomorrow
But if I told the truth I'd have to say...
There's an aching deep inside
And it just won't be denied
And I'd better say goodbye
Before I cry

very straightforward song, especially for cake.
basically about how even though on the outside you can get over a hard breakup it stays hidden inside you for a long time...ouch.
This is a Buck Owens tune, composed by Buck Owens and Harlan Howard in 1961. Yes, it is straightforward. It is a perfect cover for Cake...a slightly sarcastic tone with endearing geekiness.
I onder why they chose this as a cover. Were they particularly found of Buck?
This song fits perfectly with my mood right now. So straightforward and honest :/
