Richard Marx - What's the Story lyrics

No minors, no murder rap.

Where's that leave a guy like me,

Windy City Square?

If all that sells is tragedy,

I haven't got a prayer.

Should I try to lose it all, kick it off the track?

Just to say I took the fall, but "look who's comin' back!"

What's the story, where's the dirt?

Nobody's happy 'til somebody gets hurt.

I don't want to keep up with all that.

The garbage that you swallow gonna someday make you fat.

Yeah.

Normal childhood, beautiful wife.

'Scuse me having a wonderful life.

Why should I be hungry for someone else's pain?

Heroes should have something but talent for fame.

Double-barrel in the mouth nails it everytime.

But that's what legend's all about,

Ain't no bigger headline!

[Repeat Chorus]

Maybe I should frequent all the places I'm avoiding,

And maybe you should work on building rather than destroying.

If this is making friends, I'd rather be lonely!

[Guitar Interlude]

So where's that leave a guy like me,

Windy City Square?

I may never make page three, but ask me if I care!

[Repeat Chorus
