Suddenly it's a silver screen

And a face so beautiful that I have to cry out

Everybody hears me

Well, I look like a fool, now, if I try and I shy out

She knows all of my friends

But it's nice to find a woman who'll stay on late

But now I think I've reached the end

I wonder in the dead of night, how do I rate?

[repeat chorus]

Cm It's all like a CmdreA♯am you know

 When you're A♯still up early in the Fmorning

Gm And you all sit toFgether to watch the D♯sun come through

Cm But things don't CmlooA♯k so good

 When you could G♯use a bit of warning

Fm Then you know that no one will ever C/Gspeak the truth about Gyou.

[repeat chorus]

When I first signed the contract, it was more than a handshake then

I know it still is, but there's a plain fact

We talk so much shit behind each other's backs, I get the willies

People know nothing about their own soft guts

So how come they can sum us up

Without suffering all the hype we've known

How come they bum us up

[repeat chorus]

one of the best songs on the album.
