Hand me the book I need to write, Cover your mouth, stay out of sight, Your emphasis on sympathy makes me hard to heal, And you offer me a centrefold I decline but I'm inclined to go and leave you breathless, Spend your days with someone else, maybe that's not true but I'm imagining that. I let you in, you give half the money, He makes you laugh, I find him half as funny, The only rule of symmetry both our sides must match. And you offer me a centrefold I decline but I'm inclined to go and leave you breathless, Spend your days with someone else, maybe that's not true but I'm imagining that. I don't want your love, but I need you to care, Or anyone else who's there. You offer me a centrefold I decline but I'm inclined to go and leave you breathless, Spend your days with someone else, maybe that's not true but I'm imagining that.
