I can 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 I'm sure you're not exactly short of people to hang out and laugh at your jokes Tell you you look great You wouldn't want me around Making it all feel "forced " And "put down" And every time I smile to wonder if I'm laughin' at you And with every little grin you don't want to be wonderin' 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 I'm clockwork and you're quartz I guess that irony Will surely be The death of me And every time I smile d'you wonder if I'm laughin' at you? And with every little grin you don't want to be wonderin'.. Although I always said We were basically the same and all one All one It's so easy to persuade myself I'm clockwork and you're quartz You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled 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 then We could join hands and understand. Hallelujah! But I listen to the ticking I guess we're worlds apart It's so hard So hard I know there's no going back And you know there's no going back You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled You're never happy I need maintenance I need patience I'm not foolproof I'm not waterproof I'm not shockproof Bombproof Bulletproof Fireproof Leakproof Childproof Stainproof Pressureproof I know I told myself We're all basically the same and all one all one why'know sometimes I just can't help myself I'm clockwork and you're quartz I'm clockwork and you're quartz I know I never get the balance right And turn up half an hour late night after night And being totally dependable is so very commendable Although you're never wrong One of these days.. you're just gonna stop.
