If youre gonna talk about the things I need
Then youre gonna have to find out what they are
You remind me of a time when I was boring
I recall a time when you could slip your noose
I washed my hands of you
My feet wont hit the ground
I often ask myself
When am I gonna learn?
I know youll be content
In the right line of employment
I never held you, you never hold me
Its happening all over again
I tried to tempt you, you say Im deluded
When will this foolishness cease?
Every time I see you I start choking
I prefer to keep my eyes wide open
Ballerina poses get you nowhere
Patience is a virtue when youre near me
I washed my hands of you
My feet wont hit the ground
I often ask myself
When am I gonna learn?
I know youll be content
In the right line of employment
I never held you, you never hold me
Its happening all over again
I tried to tempt you, you say Im deluded
When will this foolishness cease?
I know that youll be content in the right line
Youll be fine youll be fine
In the right line
Youll be fine youll be fine
In the right line
I know that youll be fine
Now that youre not mine
I never held you, you never hold me
Its happening all over again
I tried to tempt you, you say Im deluded
When will this foolishness cease?
I attempted to snare you with old-fashioned manners
But patience was never my thing
When I said you were special
You know that I meant it
Now Im all over the shop
If you carry on like that youll never make it
If you carry on like me youll never make it
Youll never make it
