Lyrics
0:00I think I take myself too serious
0:02It's not that serious
0:32Alone in someone's bedroom she firmly took my hand
0:36The isolation ended I began to understand
0:40In the ping-pong match of constant desire
0:41I was never gonna get ahead
0:43'Cause I was looking in the mirror
0:48Now we've got that sympathy
0:49What I'm to you you are to me
0:51Let's go
1:00Judeo-Christianity I'd never heard the words
1:04Enemies for centuries until there was a third
1:08In the ping-pong match of constant desire
1:10I was never gonna get ahead
1:11'Cause I was looking in the mirror
1:16Now we've got that sympathy
1:17What I'm to you you are to me
1:19Let's go
1:28Diego Garcia surrounded by the waves
1:32Lonely in the ocean but in every other way
1:35It was full of love
1:39In the warmest fellow-feeling
1:44Now we've got that sympathy
1:45What I'm to you you are to me
1:47Let's go
1:55I didn't have your sympathy but I knew where to start
2:00Explaining to you patiently that the one who broke my heart
2:03Would have broken yours
2:07And thrown the pieces in the river
2:12Now we've got that sympathy
2:13What I'm to you you are to me
2:15Let's go
2:24Sympa
2:32Sympa
2:39Let's go
2:40Sympa
2:43Let's go
2:48Sympa
2:51Let's go
2:56Sympa
3:08Desperate for an enemy but too afraid to kill
3:12Use the pain of someone else and triumph for their will
3:15And spill the blood
3:19Of the arrogant mosquitoes
3:24Now we've got that sympathy
3:25What I'm to you you are to me
3:27Let's go
I think I take myself too serious It's not that serious Alone in someone's bedroom she firmly took my hand The isolation ended I began to understand In the ping-pong match of constant desire I was never gonna get ahead 'Cause I was looking in the mirror Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you you are to me Let's go Judeo-Christianity I'd never heard the words Enemies for centuries until there was a third In the ping-pong match of constant desire I was never gonna get ahead 'Cause I was looking in the mirror Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you you are to me Let's go Diego Garcia surrounded by the waves Lonely in the ocean but in every other way It was full of love In the warmest fellow-feeling Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you you are to me Let's go I didn't have your sympathy but I knew where to start Explaining to you patiently that the one who broke my heart Would have broken yours And thrown the pieces in the river Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you you are to me Let's go Sympa Sympa Let's go Sympa Let's go Sympa Let's go Sympa Desperate for an enemy but too afraid to kill Use the pain of someone else and triumph for their will And spill the blood Of the arrogant mosquitoes Now we've got that sympathy What I'm to you you are to me Let's go
