I can't imagine nothing more tedious than trying to have fun with you again Maybe it's just something in my mind But I hate feeling like I'm trying all the time It's a kind of lie when we pretend that we're still friends And every time I smile to wonder if I'm laughing at you And with every little grin you don't want to be wondering Just exactly what it is I'm taking pleasure in Although I always said we were basically the same and all one, all one It's so easy to persuade myself that I'm clockwork and you're quartz I'm clockwork and you're quartz You're only happy when you're oiled and jeweled You're only happy when you wind me up And I know you're so reliable, it isn't true And it's so easy for me to break down If I could jump a ride between the skin and silicon We could join hands and understand, hallelujah But I listen to my own ticking I guess we're worlds apart but it's so hard, so hard, so hard
