Song lyrics Anything But Love by Squirrel Nut Zippers

I sing a song about clouds and rainbows
i hum a tune that sings like a dove.
rhyme some words about anything
anything but love.
i paint a picture of my prison
with blue and grey from the skies above
framed and signed with the title
"anything but love."
he had to go but i won't miss him
i have got better things to do
like writing stories and painting pictures
of anything but love.
i write a story about a couple
steal a plot from an old movie
you can tell what inspired it
anything but love.
