When she rises, wipes the sleep from her eyes
And you know she’s been crying all night
She despises you and anything that you might say
‘Cause it just isn’t right

Coffee lounges and their hostess
But your friends just wouldn’t notice

You must be joking!

Up her scale she was a mover
Had to be the all-time loser

She wasn’t joking!

What a peculiar twist when she cut her wrists

Only time and the hate of the things that I’ve done
Can release all my pain
Until I get the urge to be free
Then I’ll cheat and I’ll do it again

Wonder now if I would leave her
Finally get myself together

You must be joking!

Time is scarce and is getting scarcer
Here’s my song, now hang in there sir!

You must be joking!

What a peculiar twist when she cut her wrists

Only time and the hate of the things that I’ve done
Can release all my pain
Until I get the urge to be free
Then I’ll cheat and I’ll do it again

Wonder now if I would leave her
Finally get myself together

You must be joking!

Time is scarce and is getting scarcer
Here’s my song, now hang in there sir!

You must be joking!

What a peculiar twist: I just cut my wrists!
