| Lyrics: | Why are we racing to be so old
I'm up late pacing the floor
I won't be told
you have
your reservations
I'm bought and sold
I'll face the music, I'll face the facts
even
when we walk in polka-dots and checkered slacks
bowing and squawking, running after
tidbits
bobbing and squinting, just like a nitwit
chorus
two little hitlers
will fight it out until
one little hitler does the other one's will
I will return, I will
not burn
down in the basement
I need my head examined, I need my eyes
excited
I'd like to join the party, but I was not invited
you make a member of me, I'll be
delighted
I wouldn't cry for lost souls you might drown
dirty words with dirty minds
written in a toilet town
dial me a valentine, she's a smooth operator
it's all so
calculated, she's got a calculator
she's my soft touch typewriter, and I'm the great
dictator
chorus
a simple game of self-respect
you flick the switch and
the world goes off
nobody jumps as you expect
I would have thought you would have had
enough by now
You call selective dating, for some effective mating
I thought I'd let
you down dear, but you were just deflating
I knew right from the start, we'd end up
hating
pictures of the merchandise plastered on the wall
we can look so long as we
don't have to talk at all
you say you'll never know him, he's not a natural man
he doesn't
want your pleasure, he wants as no one can
he wants to know the names of all those he's better
than
chorus |
