The boys and the girls
They pa** to the corners of the room
Predicted a move, I thought
We'd never change the habits of the old school
With all I've ever done
We work the phone
And wait for the moment to come
But never, never could we remember
You can't ask me any way you talk
(Anyway you laugh)
How can I make myself play?
Days race past pa**
Do I have to ask?
How should I know if you've changed?
The years have been kind, although
Up close I couldn't say for sure
Well, you know I was never good at differences
Kind of it's safe to say
I've never changed
And if you've heard the phone before
I don't want to be a bore
Then what do you suppose we do?
‘Cause never, never could we remember
You can't ask me any way you talk
(Anyway you laugh)
How can I make myself play?
Days race past pa**
Do I have to ask?
How should I know if you've changed?
The boys and the girls, they start
At the end, as they always do
Takin' a choice
Take it off
I could hear hear us sin
It's a children's game
And if the days we have between are spent wonderin'
Then lyin' out
Should I mind?
If ever, ever I tried to tell you
You can't ask me any way you talk
(Anyway you laugh)
How can I make myself play?
Days race past pa**
Do I have to ask?
How should I know if you've changed?
