Song No One Could Hear

back in a bar
I sit alone
But a man is talking to me
He doesn't know I've gone home 

my left hand is talking while my right is holding a beer

Lala lala lala we all sing a song that no one can hear

Across the room my friend is flirting with a waitress
He holds up his hand and send a toast to my way

We share a drink called love
But I'm the only one drinking here

Lala lala lala we sing a song that no one can hear

Cold in the hallway 
With jam in my jar
And bread in my hand
I make my way home to be lonely once more

Lala lala lala la la la la la
Bang Bang
I sang a song that no one could hear
