AmOutside theF cafe by theAm cracker faEctory
You were praAmcticing a Gmagic CtrickG#
And my thAmoughts got Frude, as youAm talked andE chewed
On the lAmast of your Gpick andC mixG#
Said you're mistaken if you're thAminking that I Fhaven't been caught
Amcold beforeE
As you Ambit into your sGtrawberry ClaceG#
And then a flip in your attAmention in the Fform of aAm gobstopperE
Is all you had lAmeft and it was Ggoing to CwasteG#
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

The next time that I caught my own reflection
It was Amon it's way to Emeet you
AmThinking of exGcuses toC postponeG#
You never look like yAmourself from the Fside
But your pAmrofile could not Ehide
The fact you Amknew I was appGroaching Cyour throneG#
With folded Amarms you occuFpied the bench likeAm toothache
EStood and puffed your Amchest out like youG never lostC a war G#
And though I tAmried so not to Fsuffer the Amindignity of aE reaction
There Amwas no cracks to gGrasp or gaps tCo clawG#
And yourF past-times, coDmnsisted of the strange
And tAmwisted and deranged
And I Amhate that little game you had called F
Crying lDmightning
And how you like to Amaggravate the icky man on rainy afternoons F
UninDmviting
But Amnot half as impossible as everyone assumes
You areF cryingDm lightning
Am
Oh you were rAmeading a book aboutDm some idiot
And tFelling me about anEother
I was Amso severelyDm underwhelmed
I thought I mFight never rEecover
Straighten the rAmudder girl
And sDmail me up stairs
And Fgo and find somebody
Who caEres
Well we Ammight not be the Dmperfect partners
But tonFight we make a Epair
AmYour past-times, conAmsisted of the strange
And twAmisted and deranged
And I hAmate that little game you had called F
