lyrics

Melody knocks and breaks down the door
She's figured out what I'm using her for
Sometimes the truth isn't pretty
Harmony bursts in looking for Mel
I guess their duet isn't doing too well
Everyone says it's a pity

Ain't she a beauty
She's benevolent but she's the boss
Scrambles like Flutie
Catches footballs just like Randy Moss

One with a bullet, top of the pops
It's musical chairs when the musical stops
Demons demanding an encore
Keep it together as long as I can
A couple of couplets I can't get to scan
Trying to keep up the con for another year or two

Solid as Plato
Everything she has is what she wants
Pitches like Pedro
Hits the baseball just like Barry Bonds

I will find you
Picking up the pieces that you leave behind you
Put them on a page and we'll pretend they're memories
Please deceive me
(take a piece of paper)
Take me far away and say
(write it down, fold it up)
You won't believe me
(if you need it sometime later)
[let it come and let it go]
Everything I say will be
(take a match, watch it burn)
[it doesn't matter if]
A lie, I vow to you
(it will come again)
[it comes again]
I will surrender my neck if you promise to knit me the noose
Cause I'm getting too long in the tooth
And I'm not what I was in my youth
Yeah, I asked for your love but you gave me the truth

Man all the stations, get ready for war
We're taking it to them
It doesn't matter what we do them for
As long as we do them
