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
