Lyrics
0:04You said you wanted someone just like me
0:07You let me read it in your diary
0:10I'd like to write this out of history
0:13It was an awkward patch
0:15I had an itch to scratch
0:17We spent the summer kissing
0:19In a basement room
0:23Learning all the rules
0:25You made them up as you went along
0:29And then your passion cooled
0:31You really had me fooled
0:34I'm not gonna be around
0:37You better write this down
0:39I'm gonna leave without a sound
0:42You better write this down
0:48I didn't really need to hear the facts
0:51But you know me I couldn't help but ask
0:54And now you're telling me I need to relax
0:57I chose the warmest day
0:58To rain on your parade
1:00I learned to love the sickly sweet
1:03In order to meet
1:06All of my body's needs
1:09You swore to keep me in your nest
1:12How could you tell a lie
1:15About the birth of a child
1:18I won't always be around
1:28Day by day we assemble it all
1:31And then we tear it away
1:51Stealing post-punk posters
1:57From your sister's room
2:02You opened your diary
2:05I wish you'd never shown me
2:09Gossamer voices rising from speakers
2:12In a prefabricated plume
2:16Here's an entry for your diary:
2:20Dictation - are you ready
2:24I'm not gonna be around
2:25You better write this down
2:28I'm gonna leave without a sound
2:31You better write this down
You said you wanted someone just like me You let me read it in your diary I'd like to write this out of history It was an awkward patch I had an itch to scratch We spent the summer kissing In a basement room Learning all the rules You made them up as you went along And then your passion cooled You really had me fooled I'm not gonna be around You better write this down I'm gonna leave without a sound You better write this down I didn't really need to hear the facts But you know me I couldn't help but ask And now you're telling me I need to relax I chose the warmest day To rain on your parade I learned to love the sickly sweet In order to meet All of my body's needs You swore to keep me in your nest How could you tell a lie About the birth of a child I won't always be around Day by day we assemble it all And then we tear it away Stealing post-punk posters From your sister's room You opened your diary I wish you'd never shown me Gossamer voices rising from speakers In a prefabricated plume Here's an entry for your diary: Dictation - are you ready I'm not gonna be around You better write this down I'm gonna leave without a sound You better write this down
