La-la-la Well I guess I'm just here to test your patience 'Cause you're so smart my tricks don't work at all Is it my lack of education? Just tell me why You never call Behind your symmetry lies a fundamental difference There are those who own the minds and those who crawl No offense but, in between the lines I'm reading Look out for your own, and you're gonna look at me that way And it's true So what can I do? Everything you get's slowing your affection (what can I do?) And maybe impress you with a song (what can I do?) I'm trying to minimize the damage done 'cause there ain't no one like you I found that postcard from that trip you took to Thailand I remember studying all the words written in your pretty hand The little lines and little curls that held a sacred meaning Or so I thought, but I had it wrong Now I'm trying to figure out when it was you gave me these heartworms I feel them wriggling in my blood, gonna do me harm By now I'd rather lose this losing feeling that came on when you cooled off Started treating me in this friendly way And it's true So what can I do? Oh won't you be still for a moment (what can I do?) So I can push a feather through your heart (what can I do?) I'm trying to minimize damage done 'cause there ain't no one like you So what can I do? When I get lonely to distraction (what can I do?) Maybe impress you with a song (what can I do?) No reason waiting round in your saddest dream, it never came true La-la-la
