Tell your friends not to think aloud
Until they swallow
Whisper things into my brain
Your voice sounds so hollowI am not a leader of men
Since I prefer to follow
Do you think I could have a drink
Since it's so hard to swallow
So hard to swallowSo turn the television off
And I will sing a song
And if you suddenly have the urge
You can sing alongI touch your hand, I touch your face
I think the fruit is rotten
Give me lessons on how to breathe
Cause I think I've forgotten
I think I've forgottenOne day, up to a cliff
That overlooks the water
I jumped in to save a girl
It was somebody's daughter
And now the ring is on my hand
It was given to me by her
To this day we all sit around
And dream of ways to get higher
To get much higherTell your friends not to think aloud
Until they swallow
Whisper things into my brain
Your voice sounds so hollowI am not a leader of men
Since I prefer to follow
Do you think I could have a drink
Since it's so hard to swallow
So hard to swallow
