[00:10.233] |
And you measure for wealth by the things you can hold |
[00:14.666] |
And you measure for love by the sweet things you're told |
[00:19.233] |
And you live in the past or a dream that you're in |
[00:24.000] |
And your selfishness is your cardinal sin |
[00:30.400] |
And you want to be held with highest regard |
[00:35.000] |
It delights you so much if he's trying so hard |
[00:39.100] |
And you try to conceal your ordinary way |
[00:44.033] |
With a smile or a shrug or some stolen cliche' |
[00:51.800] |
But don't you understand, and don't you look about |
[01:00.566] |
I'm trying to take nothing from you |
[01:05.066] |
So why should you act so put out for me? |
[01:14.600] |
'Cos emotionally you're the same basic trip |
[01:19.133] |
And you know that I know of the times that you slip |
[01:23.433] |
So don't try to impress me, you're just pins and paint |
[01:28.100] |
And don't try to charm me with things that you ain't |
[01:35.500] |
And don't try to enchant me with your manner of dress |
[01:40.033] |
'Cos a monkey in silk is a monkey no less |
[01:44.500] |
So measure for measure reflect on my said |
[01:49.000] |
And when I won't see you then measure it dead |
[01:56.600] |
'Cos don't you understand, and don't you look about |
[02:05.366] |
I'm trying to take nothing from you |
[02:09.666] |
So why should you act so put out, |
[02:14.066] |
And sit there in wonder and doubt, for me? |
