3pm on a two speed bike
won't you fall down
fall down on your knees
I'm begging you please
Mercy
C'mon give me something to believe
inside of you
into you, I'm into you
I'm so alone there's no-one home besides me
Quarter nickle dime I'm trying to cash me
But if it's my party then why am i so sad?
And if you're not worried then I am
Cos if you're not going tell me why I ought to be
Sure seems like a buzz-kill thing to do
oh
Grape fruit eyes and a cherry smile
won't you come around, come around here more often
I'm comatose, I'll overdose
Just wanna get close to you tonight
I might just see it through
a discotheque can't pay my rent or help me
but study scores and moping bores can't drown me
And if it's my party then why am i so sad?
And if you're not worried then I am
Cos if you're not going tell me why I ought to be
Sure seems like a buzz-kill thing to do
Oh
it's my party
And if you're not worried
Cos if you're not going
tell me why
And if it's my party then why am i so sad?
And if you're not worried then I am
Cos if you're not going tell me why I ought to be
Sure seems like a buzz-kill thing to do
Oh

catch a train on monday morning
it's always 20 minutes late
if i wanted to be more reliable
i'd take a car and still be 20 minutes late
so jump on the quiet carriage
play Wings and settle in to it
you want some peace and quiet
you need some peace and quiet
All i ever needed was someone just like you
all i ever wanted was someone to love me like you do
all i ever wanted was something more to do
all i ever needed was to be satisfied with you
and the table's too crowded to sit at
push yourself up against the wall
you're scared in social situations and i am to but
it's someone's birthday party, not much that we can do
so tire yourself out
no rest for the wicked now
elementary school taught me the difference between needing and wanting
much more than grammatical error, holds consequences of real terror
All i ever needed was someone just like you
all i ever wanted was someone to love me like you do
all you ever wanted was to teach me something new
all you ever needed was a safe ride home too
ah
All i ever needed was someone just like you
all i ever wanted was someone to love me like you do
all i ever really needed was someone just like you
all i ever needed was someone to love me like you do
you do
