I couldn't believe it |
|
when you said you didn't care |
|
if people used you |
|
or people stole from you |
|
you said - nothing lasts forever |
|
nothing to do with you |
|
then you say |
|
|
|
come to me if you can be quiet |
|
come little one |
|
if you can be still |
|
you say - there's so much more to do |
|
than get caught up on every issue |
|
it's puppet city out there truly |
|
|
|
I couldn't believe it |
|
when you said you had no feelings |
|
of love or hate or anything dramatic |
|
not jealousy or pride |
|
you said you'd set these things aside |
|
then you say |
|
|
|
come to me... |
|
|
|
I couldn't believe it |
|
when you said I had been programmed |
|
to miss you when you go away |
|
to be indignant when you stay away |
|
to worry about things the proper length of time |
|
well-taught emotionally |
|
|
|
girl does this - tell her it's wrong |
|
that's the thing to do |
|
girl does that - tell her it's wrong |
|
that's the thing to do |
|
if you love them you need them |
|
so stop trying to free them |
|
that's the thing to do |
|
that's not the thing to do |
|
|
|
I couldn't believe it |
|
when you said you needed no one |
|
you're a stubborn man |
|
I think you're antisocial |
|
whatever that is |
|
you're supposed to care about your brother |
|
it's not right to be so cold |
|
|
|
come to me if you can be quiet |
|
come little one |
|
if you can be still |
|
you say - there's so much more to do |
|
than get caught up on every issue |
|
it's puppet city out there truly |
