As merry as the days were long I am right and you are wrong Back at the old grey school I would win and you would lose But you've got everything now You've got everything now And what a terrible mess I've made of my life Oh, what a mess I've made of my life No, I've never had a job because I've never wanted one I've seen you smile but I've never heard you laugh So who is rich and who is poor I cannot say You are your mother's only son and you're a desperate one But I don't want a lover, I just want to be seen In the back of your car A friendship sadly lost Well this is true, and yet it's false But did I ever tell you, by the way, I never did like your face But you've got everything now You've got everything now And what a terrible mess I've made of my life Oh, what a mess I've made of life No, I've never had a job because I'm too shy I've seen you smile, but I've never really heard you laugh So who is rich and who is poor I cannot say You are your mother's only son and you're a desperate one But I don't want a lover I just want to be tied To the back of your car

Every day, you must say So, how do I feel about my life? Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes When will you accept yourself? I am sick, and I am dull, and I am plain How dearly I'd love to get carried away Oh, but dreams have a knack of just not coming true And time is against me now Or who and what to blame? Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes When will you accept yourself? For heaven's sake Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes Every day, you must say Or how do I feel about the past? Others conquered love, but I ran They sat in my room, and I drew up a plan But plans can fall through, as so often they do And time is against me now And there's no one left to blame Tell me, when will you? When will you accept your life? The one that you hate For anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes Every day, you must say "Oh, how do I feel about my shoes?" They make me awkward and plain How dearly I would love to kick with the fray But I once had a dream, and it never came true And time is against me now Time is against me now And there's no one but yourself to blame Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes Anything is hard to find For heaven's sake Anything is hard to find When you will not open your eyes When will you accept yourself? When? When? When? When?

What she said "How come someone hasn't noticed that I'm dead And decided to bury me? God knows, I'm ready" What she said was sad But then, all the rejection she's had To pretend to be happy could only be idiocy What she said was not For the job or lover that she never had What she read All heady books she'd sit and prophesize It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead To really, really open her eyes What she read All heady books she'd sit and prophesize It took a tattooed boy from Birkenhead To really, really open her eyes What she said "I smoke 'cause I'm hoping for an early death And I need to cling to something!"
