The twitching impulses to speak your mind

I'll lend you my microscope and maybe you will find it

Is it in that ugly place that's just behind your face

Where you keep my picture still despite the fact

That you had me replaced



Chorus:

Say "goodbye"

Baby can't you act your age? 

You know why

I'm going to give it to you straight

Although I'll never be

Unhappy as you want me to be

Still it's all the rage



I'll probably play along

Left to my own devices

Spare me the drone of your advice

The sins of garter and gin

Confession may delay

You know the measuring pole

The merry boots of clay

I've heard it all before

You'll say it anyway



Chorus



Alone with your tweezers and your handkerchief

You murder time and truthlovelaughter and belief

So don't try to touch my heartit's darker than you think

And don't try to read my mind because it's full of disappearing ink



Chorus



Although I'll never be

Unhappy as you want me to be

Still it's all the rage
