If you say that I'm out of tune, love
Know that this causes me immense pain
Only the privileged have an ear like yours
I only have what God gave me

If you insist on classifying
My anti-musical behavior
Even lying I must argue
That this is bossa nova, that this is very natural

What you don't know or even suspect
Is that the out of tune ones also have a heart

I photographed you with my Rolleyflex
Your enormous ingratitude was revealed
You just can't talk about my love like that
This is the greatest you can find, see?

You with your music forgot the main thing
That in the chest of the out of tune ones
In the bottom of the chest beats silently
In the chest of the out of tune ones
A heart also beats
