They  wanted me here
Just  to show you my face
But  when it comes to the crunch
I  just hide in disgrace
You're  calling me mad
But  i know you're the same
Cause  you got to be seen to be playing the game
Yes  we got to be seen to be playing, the game
It  ain't gonna hurt now
 If you open  up your eyes
You're  making it worse now
 Everytime  you criticise
I'm  under your curse now
 But I call  it compromise
I  thought that you were wise
But  you were otherwise
 A specimen like you
 I would love to obtain
 I asked a tedious guy if he'll tell me your name
 I'd love to impress you
 With a back somersault
 I want to take out your love
 But it's locked in a vault
 I wanna take up your love
 But it's locked in a vault
 When i open my mouth
 I'm so brutally honest
 And i can't expect that kind of love from you
 When you open your mouth
 your teeth are beautifully polished
 And i can't extract the pain you're going through
 No i can't explain
 The pain you're going through
