Dr. Dog - Broken Heart Lyrics






I never really had a broken heart
I always played it kinda close to my chest
Love for me's just been a walk in the park
It doesn't really matter
I never really mattered
I never really had a broken heart
Such a shock to me
What looks to me like people going through the motions
But when it's over their hearts are broken

[Chorus:]
I'm fine on the shelf
She really loved him, I couldn't see it though
He really loved her, but I don't believe it oh no
I'm fine on the shelf
She really loved him, I couldn't see it though
He really loved her, but I don't believe it oh no

Freedom from love
Freedom from the heartache
[x4]

I never really had a broken heart
You don't believe me, just look at my chest
The way some people like to run and hide
I never really, really
I never really

I never really had a broken heart
I've never really ever been undone
It's just playing house
Two can do it, you can do it two

[Chorus]

[Chorus x2]

    F@&KIN HEARTBREAKER!

  32. F.... S....

    great song! 

  33. D.... E....

    catchy tune, love it

  34. I.... L....

    Great tune. Love the vocal line. Gotta seek out more by this band I guess.

    I.... L....

    @Ivan Lendl My favorite band since The Beatles, you should check out all their stuff! I always recommend Fate or We All Belong as starters, but love every song on every album, they're so creative on so many levels. Killer live band, too, don't miss that opportunity!

  35. J.... L....

    PLAYLAND!!! 

  36. M.... W....

    catchy tune. turn up the volume!

    And to the female fan who couldn't find anyone to with her to the concert.... I second what the other person said... Go By Yourself!  Years ago I did that, went by myself and ended up not only meeting the band (a very internationally famous one at that), becoming close friends and then ran their international fan club for 10 years. So ya never know....
    I find when you go with someone, they just hold you back...

  37. M.... ....

    Yet another Love offering from KUTX fm 88.9 outta Austin. love this!!

  38. S.... ....

    them being my favorite band is an understatement.

  39. R.... &....

    Love finding New catchy music. .

    R.... &....

    +allbiz2k10 The Bridge is awesome. They play some of the same stuff as the Buzz, but often leave out the crap while playing stuff like this, the Tune Yards, Saint Vincent, and local music that the Buzz never plays.


    Hands down the best radio station in Kansas City and likely one of the best in the nation (I've had people from outside the area tell me this).

    R.... &....

    The format has changed a little over the last two years, but still groovy. Are you in Mo? Im in Sedalia, Mo.

    R.... &....

    +allbiz2k10 I am in southern Joco. Sounds like we should hit up a show sometime. If you've never been to Knuckleheads Saloon I think you'd love it. One of the coolest, most unique venues in the US.

    R.... &....

    I'm down man, that sounds like a  plan. They are ALWAYS talking about Knuckleheads salon. I've never been. I'll look up show info, you do the same, if anything rings a bell holler at me. 

    R.... &....

    +allbiz2k10 Little late but there is a great local band called Katy Guillen and the Girls and they are having a CD release party tomorrow. They are really good.

    St. Paul and the Broken Bones will also be here in July. Need to check them out.

  40. E.... K....

    heard this song on the radio and loved it! now it is stuck in my head!

  41. T.... G....

    Lucky dog..

  42. S.... ....

    I love Dr. Dog's fascination with the self-marginalized - the Shadow People, the lonesome, the willfully alone, etc. Makes me rethink some of my life choices. Maybe you should too, before Dr. Dog's songs are about YOU.

    S.... ....

    excellent comment!

    S.... ....

    Ooh I like that too - reminds me of what Russell Brand praises of Morrissey, he is "the poet laureate of the dispossessed"

    S.... ....

    4 years later I dont like your comment I LOVE IT!!!!!! Its so true!!!!!

  43. R.... M....

    Some Dr Dog for your commute home

  44. h.... ....

    The reply button is a thing.

  45. M.... I....

    Hey Katelyn Just go to the show with or without someone. Go have an adventure by yourself....some of my best times have been when I went alone and meet a ton of awesome people.

  46. K.... J....

    I dunno man, they tour fuckin' nonstop, never give up hope!

  47. K.... H....

    I found out about Dr. Dog over the summer from people at work and they've grown to be one of my favorite artists! They're coming to my city in two weeks! I really want to go, but believe it or not, I've had a hard time finding someone who would want to come with me

  48. H.... H....

    Yes. Why do you care so much?

  49. D.... C....

    Were is this park?

  50. C.... Y....

    You fucked up, learn to not judge.

  51. T.... F....

    Am I the only one who is sick of how every new song has the lyrics in the music video?

  52. N.... D....

    I always thought it was "Freedom from love. Freedom from the Hard A."

  53. w.... ....

    Getting better with age was invented by Dr. Dog. Then vintner's said "this might work for wine too."

  54. C.... ....

    In my head all weekend. Great song.

  55. M.... N....

    Songs like this are why you can't judge a band by their top viewed song..

  56. M.... ....

    They deliver every time. how they manage to pull off so many different styles is beyond me but they do it phenomenally. Love B-room!

  57. f.... ....

    Listened to 3 of their songs on YouTube. I'm hooked! Love this band! New fan here! Thank you KCRW !!!

  58. H.... F....

    avon grove graduates whooohooo!

  59. J.... C....

    don't fret.. if these guys keep making music like this.. no matter where you are, you'll have your chance..

  60. D.... M....

    Dr dog trithérapie

  61. c.... ....

    Be The Void was pretty terrible, but this one is shaping up to be really good. Looking forward to it.

  62. p.... ....

    You're pretty lucky, then : (

  63. J.... M....

    MORON FAIL!

  64. m.... ....

    god I love these lyrics...

  65. u.... ....

    Me neither.

  66. B.... S....

    this album is going to be a classic. Fire it Dr. Dog!!!

  67. j.... n....

    dr dog @ 3:16

  68. k.... ....

    I'M FINE ON THE SHELF...brilliant!

  69. A.... W....

    yaaaawwwn effete youtube contumely!
    roooooar! (that's a lion 'bout to eat you in your sleep)

  70. J.... ....

    You're a fucking choch.

  71. U.... ....

    Can't wait to hear the rest of the new album, fellas. Great track

  72. J.... H....

    Not their best, but still better than most 'hipster bullshit'

  73. G.... X....

    yawn. more mediocre hipster bullshit.

  74. c.... ....

    Can't wait to see these guys in concert

  75. t.... ....

    Killer! They never miss, I think five full CDs since Toothbrush, and all way beyond good! They've already had a Hall of Fame worthy career! So creative and musical and fun and smart, all you'd ever want in a band!! Can't wait for the next one. In my book, they're the Beatles for a new generation! Squeeze is the only other band that I think deserves that accolade.

  76. f.... c....

    My favorite band, is obviously ,perfect theme

  77. D.... E....

    its different. i can see you feeling different about it. i'd say give it a few more listens. i like the song better when i listen to it and dont do other stuff. but yeah man i really like it. i was expecting it not to be good. do you like the shel silverstein song of theres? the unicorn one or whatever?

  78. D.... P....

    So how do ya feel about this one, now that you've heard it Mr Pretzel without the P? Im not really a fan. Its not terrible, but it doesn't give me the same feeling most Dr Dog songs give me.

  79. D.... E....

    your time will come again my friend. i missed out on the oppurtunity to see them so many times and even shows where i could have hung out with them after. this was around the same time 2008--2009, but i saw them last year for the first time and it was magestic. just know you'll see them and you will

  80. I.... S....

    i want to be the "oh yeah" part :b

  81. A.... W....

    Those skellies groovin with that Ganesha-clown are giving me so many creeps. 0:42 oh don't watch! I can't stop.

  82. K.... M....

    that merry-go-round and ferris wheel are booking it!

  83. w.... ....

    a song that makes sense. finally

  84. N.... T....

    I never really have a broken heart, You dont belive me just look at my chest.

  85. W.... G....

    5 people really had a Broken Heart. Love for them wasn't a walk in the park, it always really mattered.

  86. G.... ....

    I'd love to know what amusement park this was or is.... It looks like it could possibly be Wonderland my other guess would be Hershey but I don't think it's Hershey.

  87. M.... J....

    the only word you could come up with to describe the two new songs from b-room was "juvenile"?

    wat

  88. O.... G....

    heart breakingly good

  89. J.... ....

    Makes me want to turn it up and drive fast.

  90. B.... S....

    That is the best voice crack in a song.. ever.

  91. M.... R....

    Come to Texas!

  92. T.... R....

    Love the video and the song! Can't wait for the album!

  93. S.... ....

    Awesome songs as well man!

  94. I.... M....

    Shut up and take my money! PLEASE make this single available for download!

  95. G.... ....

    I went to Coachella 2009, and didn't see Dr.Dog, I simply dismissed them because their name made me think of a rapper. It is by far, my biggest regret, I missed out on what is now one of my favorite bands today, and since I don't even live in the U.S., it seems it was a one-time opportunity.
    Awesome song!

  96. J.... M....

    I love love love Dr. Dog so much, but I don't really know how I feel about this more pop-y and I dont really want to say it but juvenile version. Love the solo! Its still a great song, but my favorite Dr. Dog songs are like We All Belong and Easy Beat. Oh well!
