CANTANTE: 10,000 Maniacs

TITULO:Headstrong

To your common sense firm arguments
i won't listen to your voice of reason trying to change my mind.
i mind my feelings and not your words.
didn't you notice i'm so headstrong even when i know i'm wrong?
take this to your heart and into your head now:
before you waste your time, call a truce and call a draw.
What's the use in mapping your views out in orderly form
when it does nothing but confuse and anger me more?
i mind my feelings and not your words.
didn't you notice i'm so headstrong.
you're talking to a deaf stone wall.
take this to your heart and into your head now:
the old wives' tale is true, i'll repeat it.
all is fair in love and war, that's how the famous saying goes.
Open up your eyes, see me for what i am:
cast in iron, i won't break and i won't bend.
take this to your heart and into your head now:
the old wives' tale is true, i'll repeat it.
all is fair in love and war, that's how the famous saying goes.
If i told you we were out to sea in a bottomless boat,
you'd try anything to save us, you'd try anything to keep us afloat.
and if we were living in a house afire,
i don't believe that you could rush out and escape it and not rescue me.
take this to your heart and into your head now:
the old wives' tale is true, i'll repeat it.
all is fair in love and war, that's how the famous saying goes.
listen, i think they were talking to you.
