Soft spoken
No token man or boy
When she goes to the disco she doesn’t like the noise
You’ve seen her read Rilke in German,
Oh of course she would
You’ll make her misunderstand you’re misunderstood

You know she listens to the mayfly
I know you’re looking for a a way to be a mayfly too

She wants love
You offer infatuated dreams
She’ll toast you and post you her treatment for the screen
Bore meets girl
Bore loses girl
You’re the one who chooses every time
She’s clever
She’ll never say “I’m going to make you mine“

You know she listens to the mayfly
I know you’re looking for a a way to be a mayfly too

You want to change her so you won’t want her
A senseless suitor, to want to make her weaker

You’ve seen her read Rilke in German,
Oh of course she would
You’ll make her misunderstand you’re misunderstood

You know she listens to the mayfly
I know you’re looking for a a way to be a mayfly too
