Lyrics: Cue The Violins

He merry-go-round
appreciates your quarter
but do you?
give yourself away in an envelope
to the world
please turn off the sun when its not in use
its endearing how i cant
work you out at all

so kiss these lips good-bye
my ways, will make your eyes cry
ill catch the elevator just in time
for you to cue-the-violins
and hey miss splender pretender
i guess im leaving cos i know it wont work
so cue the violins

ill stick around, ill sleep on my friends floor
and ill write you a letter from the porch
to say... "i miss you, its over"
"complications took over us"
"youre gone, amazing"
"the world thinks im crazy to let you go"

so kiss these lips good-bye
my ways, will make your eyes cry
ill catch the elevator just in time
for you to cue-the-violins
and hey miss splender pretender
i guess im leaving cos i know it wont work
so cue the violins

I hear youre doing just fine
but i bet you've ripped up all
the postcards, i sent to you
you were truly my best friend
But i guess that message
never.. got.. through

So kiss these lips good-bye
my god, you have beautiful eyes
cue the violins, cue the violins
and hey miss splender-drama-queen
i guess ive left you a memory
cue the violins
cue the violins
