 So tell  me,  he doesn't seem  your type,
 but is there something  I should know?
 Don't lie,  are you trying to hide
 that special  glow?
 Continue with opening figure:
 Back then, I know one thing you liked, was my flatline attitude.
 You'd think, you'd never fall for this, some total "as if" type of dude.

 Funny little load clicks on...
 You're the New Breed  alright.
 I guess  what you're what she wants now.
 
 You're young and strong, and you own the night
 
 Good luck to you both, I'll get along some how.

 I get  it,  you look(s) at  me and think,
 he's ready for  Jurassic Park.
 He's sweet,  but it's time  to find  a
keener  spark.
 . . .continue with opening figure:
 I guess, I'll make my exit now.
 Before you twist the knife.
 It's best, if I just leave you here
 To your new dot-com-slash life
