96 Tears Lyrics - The Modern Lovers

[spoken introduction:] 

This is one that we didn't write, and you'll remember it. I say: 1, 2, 3, 4! 

Too many teardrops for one heart 

To be cryin' 

Too many teardrops for one heart 

To carry on 

Been way on top now 

Since you left me 

You're always laughin' 

Way down at me 

But watch out now 

I'm gonna get him 

And we'll be together 

For just a little while 

And then I'm gonna put you 

Way down here 

You'll start cryin' 

In the sunshine 

Ninety-six tears 

Hey, cry 

Cry 

And be terrible 

And cry 

And feel terrible 

And cry 

Uh-huh, and cry 

Uh-huh

And when the sun comes up 

I'll be on top 

You'll be down here 

Lookin' up 

And I might wave 

To come up here 

I look for you 

But I don't see you 

Wavin' now 

So I don't now 

I'll just cry 

I'll just cry 

I'll just cry

Too many teardrops for one heart 

To be cryin' 

Too many teardrops for one heart 

To carry on 

Well now 

You're gonna shout it from the top, girl 

I'll hear it from the bottom 

You'll shout it from the album 

And work out all night 

I say, 96 

And I say, night and day 

I say, rock and roll, baby 

Eh, move on out 

I say, 96 tears 

Let's take a three-year letter 

I say, 1-2, 96, 1-2!
