This thing is like the loch ness monster
People say it's somewhere down there
Know you'd like to believe it 'cause it's such a good story
But so far you have not seen hide nor hair

You and I are like a red, red herring, baby
We go nowhere at all
You and I are like a ten pin bowling
Ten pin bowling, you just set us up watch us fall

You and I are like a weak cup of coffee
Weak cup of coffee on a winter's day
You and I are like a free lunch
There's no such thing but we eat it up anyway, yeah

So I talked to my sister she said, "Run some red lights
'Cause I've been watching you sit here bargain with yourself all day
And I don't know who you think you're fooling
'Cause you've never been the type to do right
And you've always been a sucker for a moving train"

You and I are like a red, red herring, baby
We go nowhere at all
You and I are like a weeble's wobble
Weeble's wobble but they never fall

You and I are like a weak cup of coffee
Weak cup of coffee on a winter's day
You and I are like a free lunch
No such thing but we eat it up anyway

So I guess you think you're hot shit
'Cause the way you made me shake and shiver
And I could do that by myself
Going twenty in the breakdown lane

And I could take that back
Or I could take it to the river
But I'll give it all to you
'Cause I know that you're just the same

And you and I are like a red, red herring, baby
We go nowhere at all
You and I are like a weeble's wobble
Weeble's wobble but they never fall

You and I are like a weak cup of coffee
Weak cup of coffee on a winter's day
You and I are like a free lunch
No such thing but we eat it up anyway
