[Verse 1]
Now when you write your exposé
I wish you'd leave me out
I'd just as soon you didn't use my name
I'm not crazy about the way
Your book might make me look
I might have been there but
You can't hold me to blame

[Chorus]
Now when you write your exposé
Don't kiss and tell it all
No one likes a tattle-tale writing on the wall
Don't go talking out of school
Because you know you got no call
If you can't say something nice
Don't say anything at all

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
