we're sorry richard's not at home

he'd like to spend the day alone

and we don't know why we believe

what we believe

we're sorry jane can't come to play

she's sad and won't come out today

and we don't know why we believe

what we believe

and he won't laugh

and we don't know why

and he won't talk

and we don't know why

we're sorry mary's not at home

she's gone to sleep and won't get up

and we don't know why we believe

what we believe

and she won't laugh

and we don't know why

and she won't talk

and we don't know why

we can't find faith in the good times rat race

your good fun friend doesn't ever wanna speak again

and all my tears can't put it back together 

and we wanna be good 

somebody should

and he won't laugh

and we don't know why

and he won't talk

and we don't know why

we're sorry richard's not at home

he'd like to spend the time alone

and we don't know why we believe

what we believe

and he won't laugh

and we don't know why

and he won't talk

and we don't know why

and we don't know why
