I'm the sad clown that sings I'm the bad wine the good guest brings Too self-absorbed for magic My car is always stuck in trafic I sleep in an airless cell I got a rich and deep private hell Oh why are you with me Oh why are you with me I'm white as a lie Oh why are you with me I used to say I was bi Oh why are you with me Always ready to strike out or hurt Oh why are you with me Plus I never take off my short Oh why are you with me I am always chewing empty boasts Oh why are you with me And plates of cheese and toasts Oh why are you with me I claim my music is in demand Oh why are you with me I even went to Stonehenge with my band Oh why are you with me And I knew from the start That you could break my heart You don't laugh at all my jokes But you wear all my coats I knew from the start That you could break my heart 'Cause with you nothing's wrong 'Cause you're where I belong I knew from the start That you could break my heart Romantic comedies and tears Oh why are you with me I'm a slave to all my fears Oh why are you with me The silhouette of a garden gnome Oh why are you with me And I always like to be alone Oh why are you with me And I've never been loved The way that you love I've never been loved The way that you love
