Wish I could call in sick today
Or simply tell them I won't stay
Cause I intend to let you down
Restore my pride and leave this town
In a few days I will breathe with two lungs

I don't believe in everything I do
I don't believe in everything that's true
Once I did believe in you

I know a thing or two about you
And you know a thing or three about me
Lately we have been itchy

The more you sell, the less I live
And even when you grunt I give
In a tasteless extra large
I nick a hundred from the harsh
Buy myself some lovely glitter varnish

I don't believe in everything I do
I don't believe in everything that's true
Once I did believe in you

I know a thing or two about you
And you know a thing or three about me
Lately we have been itchy

He took the easy way
Out of the call
Said he was standing there
With boots on and all
He said - I'll call you back
As soon as I can
It's kind of hectic now
I hope you do understand

Then he went back to bed
And to yesterday's arms
He had forgotten her name
And had to stretch his charm
He told her he had never
Seen such eyes
And this was only one
Of a million lies

I would like to be
A lighthouse on your sea
But when we're on the phone
You always sink
Happy as can be
And then you talk to me
I drag you down
Before you even blink



Then it's: Over, over and out
And suddenly we talk about
The most stupid, shallow things
And all because of what my temper brings
I would like to do
Exciting things for you
I nearly took up smoking
Just to be
Elegantly rash
Vigorous and brash
Of course I ended up
With smoker's allergy



Then it's: Over, over and out
And suddenly we talk about
The most stupid, shallow things
And all because of what my temper brings


It's hard to be kind; it's all about pride
And I am only sweet when I drink
It's hard to be kind; it's all about pride
And I am only sweet when I drink

Sundays are slow
Never pretentious, oh no
Silent and closed
And we don't really have to know
Where to go
Holding hands with the one I love
She wears mittens, I wear gloves
There must be someone above
Holding hands with the one I love
We could catch a picture show
Rent a (Sunday) video
We could stay out in the snow
""Sunday slow""
Sundays are meant
To let the quilt become a tent
Sundays well-spent
Don't need a reason, no intent
Holding hands wi th the one I love
She wears mittens, I wear gloves
There must be someone above
Holding hands with the one I love
We could catch a picture show
Rent a (Sunday) video
We could stay out in the snow
Order greasy food to go

I told you all about it
There was nothing I could do
I told you all about it
Every word I said was true
She gave me confirmation
And she made me feel alive
She gave me confirmation
And she made me


Make it easy on yourself
Put the blame on someone else
Make it easy on yourself tonight
Desperation is my call
The temptation changed it all
Make it easy on yourself tonight


I dreamed about September
I was back in 징V81
I dreamed about my first kiss
And how everything begun
When I was seeing Sara
I was kissing with Louise
When I was seeing Sara
I was kissing Louise



Make it easy on yourself
Put the blame on someone else
Make it easy on yourself tonight
Desperation is my call
The temptation changed it all
Make it easy on yourself tonight

Sundays are slow

And we don't really have to know

Last night we ended up in silence
We fell asleep with the creeps
I could hear you talking in your sleep
I didn't mean to be mean

So please call me up
Say I'm a spa
Come on patronise me
Smash up my guitar
You can call me up
And tell me what to do
Cause I need you

Maybe you could have misheard me
I didn't mean to cause a scene
Sometimes tiny things disturb me
I never mean to be mean

So please call me up
Say I'm a spa
Come on patronise me
Smash up my guitar
You can call me up
And tell me what to do
Cause I need you

I couldn't do it, but I wanted
To say the words, those special words
Always seem to make you disappointed
It's so absurd; I can't say the word

So please call me up
Say I'm a spa
Come on patronise me
Smash up my guitar
You can call me up
And tell me what to do
Cause I need you

I always did
What you were told
I never realised
Things may grow cold

I always thought
Either you're good
Or either you're bad, but I
Misunderstood

But when the mind suffers
The body cries out
It wasn't easy to
Let go of doubt
And when the mind suffers
The body cries out
It wasn't my fault
But the feeling was "shout"

Panic attacks
The things that you do
When I react like a
Bolt from the blue

Sober and mean
Tipsy and sweet
I never thought that I'd
Fall down this deep

But when the mind suffers
The body cries out
It wasn't easy to
Let go of doubt
And when the mind suffers
The body cries out
It wasn't my fault
But the feeling was "shout"

Last night we fell apart, we fell apart
And I took the train to hell
All from the start I knew we'd fall apart
Every bubble bursts

Selfish and blind
Hard and unkind
Inside my mind I recline

I wanna be alone
I wanna be ignorant on my own
Still I wait by the phone
I wanna be adored
And now I'm indifferent to it all
Still I wait for your call

I woke up on a mattress, by a phone
I could hear my parents sing
Dad out of key, he tried his best to be
I could hear them sing

Happy Birthday! Thirty today!
Happy, so happy
(Oh yeah)

I wanna be alone
I wanna be ignorant on my own
Still I wait by the phone
I wanna be adored
And now I'm indifferent to it all
Still I wait for your call

Tell me why, can you tell me why

I told you all about it
There was nothing I could do
I told you all about it
Every word I said was true
She gave me confirmation
And she made me feel alive
She gave me confirmation
And she made me


Make it easy on yourself
Put the blame on someone else
Make it easy on yourself tonight
Desperation is my call
The temptation changed it all
Make it easy on yourself tonight


I dreamed about September
I was back in 징V81
I dreamed about my first kiss
And how everything begun
When I was seeing Sara
I was kissing with Louise
When I was seeing Sara
I was kissing Louise



Make it easy on yourself
Put the blame on someone else
Make it easy on yourself tonight
Desperation is my call
The temptation changed it all
Make it easy on yourself tonight

I've been a liar
I've been a fool
Been digging for fire
With the wrong tool
I've played with people
Like if they were toys
Deeper and deeper
I'm far from rejoice
(Oh won't you)
Save me from myself
And cure this mad disease
Save me from myself
Please
I've been a coward
A self-centred prick
And what I've discovered
Is making me sick
(Oh won't you)
Save me from myself
And cure this mad disease
Save me from myself
Please
P lease, believe me when I play
Believe me when I say
I'm sorry and I'll pay the price
Believe me when I sing
Believe me when I cling
I'm sorry! I regret those lies

Sometimes I see you
Sometimes I don't
Sometimes I need you
Sometimes I don't
Down, down
We fall down
Down, down, down
We fall down
I never finished a test in my life
All that I wanted was you by my side
I never finished a test in my life
Promises, promises vows and a ring
Suddenly trust doesn't mean anything
I never finished a test
Sometimes you're wrong
Sometimes I miss you
Sometimes I don't
Sometimes I kiss you
Sometimes I don't
Down, down
We fall down
Down, downtown
We fool around
I never finished a test in my life
All that I wanted was you by my side
I never finished a test in my life
Promises, promises vows and a ring
Suddenly trust doesn't mean anything
I never finished a test
Sometimes you're wrong

Sending out e-mails

Waiting for someone's reply

Thinking of details

Watching the nail varnish dry



Microwave dinners

Bringing the mobile in the bath

Think like a winner

There's something strange about that laughter



When things are over

And your outfit smells

Like cigarettes and Muscatel



You were supposed to have a stag

Now you are breathing in a bag

You were supposed to wake up in a double bed

You and your overrated friend

Had to let it end

Now you are waking up wishing you were dead



Staying up too late

Leaving the radio on

Trying to think straight

Cold sweat and terrible songs



All those happy people

Couples entwined

Make you feel lonelier inside
