I wanted to build a home for you and me
Since last I saw you, the feeling's grown exponentially
Now that you're not a part of my life, I'm looking for a fix that's right
And that tantrum was a bad one
I thought that you could see me for me
Was rather shocked when you thought so differently
It's been a shot in my arm - I don't get to make you my star
And a ransom would be a handsome bad call
I'm gonna work this out for me - And I hope you're happy
It took an awful lot of time to help you do the math
And all those hours, I would never give them back
And though it's suicide for me, don't wanna push you out of my memories
Or this song - Yet another bad call
If it wasn't obvious that I was serious
Then you're oblivious and blind
Though it doesn't help this moron who's got you on his mind
It was just a one night stand offered by a friend
To the end, but only of the night
Since you laid me down, I haven't stood upright
So I'm a crooked figure with a crooked set of teeth
Singing constantly, "Whoa, Mercy Mercy Me"
And there's no dentist that can save 'em
I'm crooked down to my cranium
And our last call was the very worst one
And I regret the things I said
I guess you found your happiness
And this was another of my pitfalls
I'm gonna work this out for me - Someday, I'll be happy
I'm not gonna need you for me - To make me happy
I'm gonna work this out for me - And I hope you're happy
I'm gonna work this out for me - Oh! Help me be happy!
