So you caught me all alone
Did you think I’d care at all?
Now I’m sitting by the phone
Waiting for you to call

It rang a million times
Before I picked it up
I wear a stupid smile
Saying that I’m stuck
The effervescent beauty of a face so thin
All the stupid questions
Well they did me in

Who was I to think to tell?
You drove her to uh oh oh
Fake plastic trees are dead
Have a good time when you fall

It rang a million times
Before I picked it up
I wear a stupid smile
Saying that I’m stuck
The effervescent beauty of a face so thin
All the stupid questions
Well they did me in

Everything
Is upside down
Everything
Is over now

It rang a million times
When you lied to me
It rang a million times
When you lied
It rang a million times
It rang a million times
It rang a million times
It rang a million times

It’s your birthday
And I’m not there
Because you don’t even
Know that I’m here
Fake trees you
Plant behind you
When it’s me there
Right beside you
I’m the shade that
Creeps your shoulder
When it hides you face from me
I can’t get over
Can’t get under
Can’t get around or
Through to you

I can’t get over
Can’t get under
Can’t get around or
Through to you

Everything
Is over now
