Verse
AmOutside the Fcafe by the Amcracker Efactory
You were Ampracticing a Gmagic Ctrick G#
And my Amthoughts got Frude, as you Amtalked and Echewed
On the Amlast of your Gpick and Cmix G#
Said you're mistaken if you're Amthinking that I Fhaven't been caught Amcold before E
As you Ambit into your Gstrawberry Clace G#
And then a flip in your atAmtention in the Fform of a Amgobstopper E
Is all you had Amleft and it was Ggoing to Cwaste G#
Chorus
AmYour past-times, consisted of the strange
And twisted and deranged
And I love that little game you had called
Crying lightning
And how you like to aggravate the ice-cream man on rainy afternoons

Verse
The next time that I caught my own reflection
It was Amon its way to Emeet you
AmThinking of exGcuses to Cpostpone G#
You never look like Amyourself from the Fside
But your Amprofile could not Ehide
The fact you Amknew I was apGproaching Cyour throne G#
With folded Amarms you occuFpied the bench like Amtoothache
EStood and puffed your Amchest out like you Gnever lost Ca war G#
And though I Amtried so not to Fsuffer the Amindignity of a Ereaction
There Amwas no cracks to Ggrasp or gaps Cto claw G#
Chorus
And your Fpast-times, Dmconsisted of the strange
And Amtwisted and deranged
And I Amhate that little game you had called F
Crying Dmlightning
And how you like to Amaggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons F
UninDmviting
But Amnot half as impossible as everyone assumes
You are Fcrying Dmlightning
Am
Bridge
Oh you were Amreading a book about Dmsome idiot
And Ftelling me about aEnother
I was Amso severely Dmunderwhelmed
I thought I Fmight never Erecover
Straighten the Amrudder girl
And Dmsail me up stairs
And Fgo and find somebody
Who Ecares
Well we Ammight not be the Dmperfect partners
But toFnight we make a Epair
