Verse 1

Strange how things can change, how your consciousness can fade

Reason can compete with the drug that shares your name

Pre-chorus 1

And there you are on cue where the light falls

Waving at strangers, wearing your name out

Pre-chorus 2

You are not yourself here, you are someone else dear

Chorus

Aren't you terrific?

Aren't you terrific now?

Verse 2

All the world applauds, to the popular tricks you choose

 But who are they to stop, when your hands are clapping too

Pre-chorus 1

And you believe that, it's an achievement

Scratching them where they have no feeling

Pre-chorus 2

You are not yourself here, you are someone else dear

Chorus

Aren't you terrific?

Aren't you terrific now?

Bridge

 It was you

 Who spoke out when no-one heard, oh yeah

You're not as pure as you were, vanity hangs you by threads

 And right now I wish some things were undone

 It's as natural as it was fun

 This is not the time to give up yourself to anyone

Pre-chorus 2

You are not yourself here, you are someone else, dear

Chorus

Aren't you terrific?

Aren't you terrific?

Pre-chorus 2

If you saw yourself here, you would be amazed, dear

Chorus

Are you terrific?

Finally terrific now
