There's somebody that I want you to know She's a sweet, sweet friend of mine If she has a fault, she will go overboard When there's a man around, she flirts like a child Darling, take a hint once and for all Stay away from them 'Cause everything you say Just seems to them so strange They cross the street whenever they see you come When the cynics stare back from the wall It's no fun at all Honey, even when you feel flat and broken You got to trust to a happy mind You could put your faith in me If you've got eyes to see And you got arms that wait for something to hold When the cynics stare back from the wall It always feels cold When I saw you in the cafe today Explain it all away to me Everyone we know, every girl and boy Each one is a misery So look me straight in the eye and tell me you're alright 'Cause I want to know the truth Nothing else will do Nothing else will do If you keep making the same mistakes over You're like a puppy with a broken leg Hey, and if it goes okay, you've got me to blame For being so cynical, and never the boy You used to laugh at 'til you cried on your bed At all the stupid things I said At all the stupid things I said When I saw you in the cafe today Explain it all away to me Everyone we know, every girl and boy Each one is a misery So look me straight in the eye And tell me you're alright 'Cause I want to know the truth Nothing else will do When the cynics stare back from the wall I know it's time to change I was so confused by the promises And the hardest thing is to walk Towards the things you need When the things you want Are like vision for the blind And I know you don't believe in a single thing That you can't touch, smell, or feel Hey, it's been a week of woe Which way you gonna go? When your desire has but all run aground 'Cause when the cynics stare back from the wall You'd better not fall, ba-da-da, da-da-ba You'd better not fall, ba-da-da, da-da-ba You'd better not fall, ba-da-da, da-da-ba You'd better not fall
