şizofreni

there's no end to the love you can give
when you change your point of view to underfoot
very good, you may be flat but you're breathing

and there's no doubt he's at home in his room,
probably watching porn of you from the fall
it's last call, and you're the last one leaving

and you thought you could change the world by opening your legs
well it isn't very hard, try kicking them instead
and you thought you could change his mind
by changing your perfume to the kind his mother wore
oh god, delilah, why? i've never met a more impossible girl

in this same bar, where you slammed down your hand and said:
"amanda, i'm in love"
no you're not, you're just a sucker for the ones who use you
and it doesn't matter what i say or do,
the stupid bastard's gonna have his way with you

you're an unrescuable schizo, or else you're on the rag
and if you take him back, i'm gonna lose my nerve
i've never met a more impossible girl

at four o'clock he got off, and you called up
"i'm down at denny's on route one, and you won't guess what he's done"
is that a fact, delilah? larry tap let you in through the back
and use his calling card again for a quick hand of gin

you are impossible, delilah, the princess of denial
and after seven years in advertising, you are none the wiser

you're an unrescuable schizo, or else you're on the rag
and if you take him back, i'm gonna lose my nerve
he's gonna beat you like a pillow, you schizos never learn
and if you take him home, you'll get what you deserve
i never met a more impossible girl

so don't cry, delilah,
you're still alive, delilah
you need a ride, delilah?
let's see how fast this thing can go
