Strange how things can change
how your consciousness can fade
reason can compete
with the drug
that shares your name
And there you are
on cue with the lifeboats
waving at strangers
weating your name out
It does your head in
confiscates meaning
dont get arrested
they cant posses you
You are not yourself dear
you are someone else dear
aren't you terrific
aren't you terrific now
All the world applauds
to the popuar tricks you choose
but who are they to stop
when your hands clapping too
And you believe that
it's an achievement
scratching them
where they have no feeling
You are not yourself dear
you are someone else dear
aren't you terrific
aren't you terrific now
It was you
who spoke out
when no one heard
oh yeah
You are not as pure
as you were
vanity hangs you
by threads
And right now I wish
some things were undone
fixes, natural, eyes in the spun
this is not the time to give up yourself
to anyone
You are not yourself dear
you are someone else dear
aren't you terrific
aren't you terrific
If you saw yourself dear
you would be amazed dear
are you terrific
finally terrific now.
