lyrics

You shouldn't act so surprised at me
Send lawyers to bring me down
This romance wasn't exactly
Two wires and a ground
I'd like to say I'm sorry, but I'm not
You offered me a garden, baby
That doesn't mean a lot

Been dodging your penned message
Before it can arrive
Because all of our confessions
Would be a waste of time
For the both of us, and that's a fact
180 degree turn
Imagine that

-chorus-
Perhaps I am too hard to please
Contrary compatibility
This clock is not about to yield
You've given up your turn, sweetheart
I'm playing the field

There's no glamour to dress up
No, I am not your foil
It's like you're maple syrup
And I'm vegetable oil
It be a stretch to say we were a pair
But gravity returned
And split the spare

-chorus-
