Costello

Takin' up my time again.
The one thing I can't stand.
Coffee and the conversation never ends.
When all I really need to find,
Is one short clever line,
To pinpoint my disgust.
It's always just too much or not enough.
And I'm overwhelmed...

So, I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons,
And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me.
But, it never gets easier.
Oh, it never gets easier...

Oh, no, no...

Singin' to myself again.
Can't hear a word you've said.
The syllables, the sounds, just aren't sentences.
And all I really wanna do,
Is tear straight into you.
Explode, unload a hail of insults 'til you finally get it.
I'm sick to death...

But, I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons,
And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me.
But, it never gets easier.
No, it never gets easier...

Oh, no, no...

A strong distaste for confrontation,
Leaves no room for self-expression.
Such a strain to remain so docile.
Oh, don't you know it all takes its toll...

I'll keep it simple for obvious reasons,
And I'll say what I should and just hope you believe me.
But, it never gets easier.
No, it never gets easier.
Oh, it never gets easier.
Well, it never gets easier.
No, it never gets easier.
Oh, it never gets easier...

(Tear straight into you.)
