Don't you fall in love with me
However flattering that might be
I know it is not what you are looking for
Experiences dead, have blown dreams out of your head
And, like a drowning man, you're clutching at a straw
So, you use your education
To summon every ounce of tact
Does your new preoccupation bring you joy
Am I pleasant artifiction, or just some mental artifact
Do you want a man, do you need a boy
Are you looking for a father
Are you looking for a son
Do you want to just relive a love you've lost
Are you looking for a lover
Who could just be anyone
Who pays the cost
WHO pays the cost
So, you use your education
To summon every ounce of tact
Does your new preoccupation bring you joy
Am I pleasant artifiction, or just a mental artifact
Do you want a man, do you need a boy
Don't you fall in love with me
However flattering that might be
I know it is not what you are looking for
