:  002210 or 577555 (useful in bridge)
First  the mic then a half  cigarette
Singing  cathy's  clown
 That's the man  she's married to now
That's  the girl that he  takes around town
 She appears  composed so she is  i suppose
Who  can really  tell
 She shows  no emotion at all
 Stares  into space like a  dead china doll
I'm  never gonna  know  you now,  but i'm  gonna love  you anyhow
Now  she's done and they're calling  someone
Such  a familiar  name
 I'm so glad  that my memory's remote
 Cos i'm doing  just fine hour to  hour note to note
Here  it is the revenge  to the tune
You're no  good
 You're no good,  you're no good, you're no good
Can't  you tell that it's  well understood
I'm  never gonna  know  you now,  but i'm  gonna love  you anyhow
I'm  here today and expected  to stay on  and on  and  on
 I'm tired
 I'm tired
Looking  out on the substitute  scene
Still  going  strong
 XO  mom
It's  okay its alright  nothing's wrong
Tell  mr. Man with impossible  plans
 To just leave me  alone
 In the place  where i make no  mistakes
In  the place where i  have what it takes
I'm  never gonna  know  you now,  but i'm  gonna love  you anyhow
I'm  never gonna  know  you now,  but i'm  gonna love  you anyhow
I'm  never gonna  know  you now,  but i'm  gonna love  you anyhow
