When you kiss me,
You taste like bills and mental maths
Your love is like a tax
You say you miss me,
I don't miss your ticking watch
One of you is one too much
It’s true -
You complicate me
I over-think my every thought
Forget to live what I’ve been taught
So just go -
'cos if you want it like that
I can’t relax
Don’t try and trick me
I don't need your thesis now
Your dissertation’s time wasted on me
No more dramatics
I feel ecstatic!
As I show you out the door
and watch you go
So just go -
'cos if you want it like that
I can’t relax
I can’t relax til you go
It’s true, once you’re gone I will be brand new
I can’t relax til you go
It’s true, once you're gone I will be brand new.
