You sit on me and I sit on you

Trying to compress each other's views

I leaned on you and you leaned on me

Trying to be what we can't be



Coming back to you after saying good-bye

Ice creme on yesterday's pie

It's not a question of being too shy

Ice creme on yesterday's pie



You call me up and I hang it up

I feel more and more corrupt

I also feel sure that there is no cure

Like the dead we must endure



Coming back to you after saying good-bye

Ice creme on yesterday's pie

Have you ever had something to hide?

Ice creme on yesterday's pie



Sometimes I'm self-destructive

But mostly I don't want to see the light

Sometimes I'm self-destructive

But mostly I'm afraid to see the light



If it's a joke then why don't I laugh?

More and more my flag's half-mast



Coming back to you after saying good-bye

Ice creme on yesterday's pie

Fireworks on the fifth of July

Ice creme on yesterday's pie
