Exposé Songtext
von Guy Clark

Now when you write your exposé, I wish you′d leave me out
I'd just assumed you didn′t use my name
I'm not crazy 'bout the way your book might make me look
I might have been there, but you can′t hold me to blame

Now when you write your exposé, don′t kiss and tell it all
No one likes a tattletale writing on the wall
Don't go talking out of school ′cause you know you got no call
If you can't say something nice, don′t say anything at all


Well, I opened up my heart to you, I let it all hang out
I told you stuff that no one else should know
So don't betray my trust in you, shame, shame if you do
Don′t drag that crap back up, just let it go

When you write your exposé, don't kiss and tell it all
No one likes a tattletale writing on the wall
Don't go talking out of school ′cause you know you got no call
If you can′t say something nice, don't say anything at all
If you can′t say something nice, don't say anything at all
