The merry-go-round
Appreciates your quarter
But do you?
Give yourself away in an envelope
To the world
Please turn off the sun when its not in use
Its endearing how i cant
Work you out at all

So kiss these lips good-bye
My ways, wI'll make your eyes cry
I'll catch the elevator just in time
For you to cue-the-violins
And hey miss splender pretender
I guess im leaving 'cause i know it wont work
So cue the violins

I'll stick around, I'll sleep on my friends floor
and I'll write you a letter from the porch
to say "I miss you, its over"
"Complications took over us"
"You're gone, amazing"
"The world thinks I'm crazy to let you go!"

So kiss these lips good-bye
My ways, wI'll make your eyes cry
I'll catch the elevator just in time
For you to cue-the-violins
And hey miss splender pretender
I guess im leaving 'cause i know it wont work
So cue the violins

I hear you're doing just fine
But i bet you've ripped up all
The postcards, i sent to you
You were truly my best friend
But i guess that message
Nevergot through

So kiss these lips good-bye
My god, you have beautiful eyes
Cue the violins, Cue the violins
And hey miss splender-drama-queen
i guess I've left you a memory

Cue the violins
Cue the violins
