What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I can imagine nothing more tedious
2
Than trying to have fun with you again
3
Maybe it's just something in my mind
4
But I hate feeling like I'm trying all the time
5
It's a kind of lie
6
When we pretend that we're still friends
7
I'm sure you're not exactly short of people to
8
hang out and laugh at your jokes
9
Tell you you look great
10
You wouldn't want me around
11
Making it all feel "forced "
12
..and "put down"
13
And every time I smile to wonder if I'm laughin' at you
14
And with every little grin you don't want to be wonderin'
15
Just exactly what it is I'm taking pleasure in
16
Although I always said
17
We were basically the same and all one
18
All one
19
It's so easy to persuade myself
20
I'm clockwork and you're quartz
21
I guess that irony
22
Will surely be
23
The death of me
24
And every time I smile d'you wonder if I'm laughin' at you?
25
And with every little grin you don't want to be wonderin'..
26
Although I always said
27
We were basically the same and all one
28
All one
29
It's so easy to persuade myself
30
I'm clockwork and you're quartz
31
You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled
32
You're only happy when you wind me up and I know
33
You're so reliable it isn't true
34
And it's so easy for me to break down
35
If I could jump a ride between the skin and silicon then
36
We could join hands and understand. Hallelujah!
37
But I listen
38
to the ticking
39
I guess we're worlds apart ...
40
It's so hard
41
So hard
42
I know there's no going back
43
And you know there's no going back
44
You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled
45
You're only happy when you're oiled and jewelled
46
You're never happy
47
I need maintenance
48
I need patience
49
I'm not foolproof
50
I'm not waterproof
51
I'm not shockproof
52
Bombproof
53
Bulletproof
54
Fireproof
55
Leakproof
56
Childproof
57
Stainproof
58
Pressureproof
59
I know I told myself
60
We're all basically the same and all one all one
61
Y'know sometimes I just can't help myself
62
I'm clockwork and you're quartz
63
I'm clockwork and you're quartz
64
I know I never get the balance right
65
And turn up half an hour late night after night
66
And being totally dependable is so very commendable
67
Although you're never wrong
68
One of these days.. you're just gonna stop.
