If you're gonna talk about the things I need,

Then you're 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 wash my hands of you,

my feet wont hit the ground,

I often ask of myself,

When am I gonna learn,

I know you'll be content,

In the right line of employment

I never held you, you never hold me,

Its happening all over again,

I try and tempt you, you say I'm deluded,

When will this foolishness cease

Everytime I see you I start choking,

I prefer to keep my eyes wide open,

Ballerina poses get you nowhere,

Patience is a virtue when you're near me

I wash my hands of you,

my feet wont hit the ground,

I often ask of myself,

When am I gonna learn,

I know you'll be content,

In the right line of employment

I never held you, you never hold me,

Its happening all over again,

I try and tempt you, you say I'm deluded,

When will this foolishness cease

I know that you'll be content,

In the right line of employment,

I know you'll be fine, you'll be fine (in the right line)

You'll be fine, you'll be fine (in the right line)

I know you'll be fine,

Now that you're not mine

I never held you, you never hold me,

Its happening all over again,

I try 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,

I said you were special, you know that I meant it,

Now im all over the shop

If you carry on like that you'll never make it,

If you cary on like me you'll never make it,
