@ARTIST: Lloyd Cole and the Commotions @ALBUM: Rattlesnakes @SONG: Are you ready to be heartbroken? Songwriter: Neil Clarke/Lloyd Cole Looking like a born-again, Living like a heretic, Listening to Arthur Lee records, Making all your friends feel so guilty about their cynicism And the rest of their generation Not even the Government is gonna stop you now But are you ready to be heartbroken? Are you ready to be heartbroken? On top of all the vitamins On account of all the seriousness You say you're so happy now You can hardly stand Lean over on the bookcase If you really want to get straight Read Norman Mailer Or get a new tailor Are you ready to be heartbroken? Are you ready to be heartbroken? Are you ready to bleed? What would it take? What would it take to wipe that smile off of your face? Are you ready to be? Are you ready to bleed?
