Intro

and pretty much the whole song):

 She says the joys of life are lost among the living

 So I guess all those souvenirs are for her health

 She gives me quarters for the phone

 And every time I feel alone I go broke

 Yeah I go broke

 She says if you're not here at least make sure you miss me

 So when I miss her I make sure to let her know

 It's the least that I could do

 And sure I guess I like it too

 I'm Mr. Charming without the charming

 I can hear the eyebrows raise when I start singing

 'Cause the songs I sing are all about myself

 You can read me like a book

 I'm not as clever as I look

 I've got a sneaky kind of selfish

 That I keep upon the shelf

 With jars of double-sided comments

 For people who've done nothing wrong

 Preparing for the lights

 And always practicing my sha-na-nas

 I will stand right next to giants

 And roar aside the lions

 Wondering how is it so easy

 For leaves amid the breeze to blow

 From hometowns all around us

 To hometowns where nobody lives

 Just cities full of people

People making people

 Making people for the masses

 People we won't ever know

 She says the point of this is not to date the future

 So just focus on the task at hand

 Try to break up with your pride

 And start to flirt with satisfied
