A sad fact widely known
The most impassionate song
To a lonely soul
Is so easily outgrownBut don't forget the songs
That made you smile
And the songs that made you cryWhen you lay in awe
On the bedroom floor
And said
"Oh, oh, smother me Mother"No, rubber ring, rubber ring
Rubber ring, rubber ring
Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ringNo, rubber ring
Rubber ring, rubber ringThe passing of time
And all of its crimes
Is making me sad againThe passing of time
And all of its sickening crimes
Is making me sad againBut don't forget the songs
That made you cry
And the songs that saved your lifeYes, you're older now
And you're a clever swine
But they were the only ones
Who ever stood by youThe passing of time
Leaves empty lives
Waiting to be filledThe passing of time
Leaves empty lives
Waiting to be filledI'm here with the cause
I'm holding the torch
In the corner of your room
Can you hear me ?And when you're dancing and laughing
And finally living
Hear my voice in your head
And think of me kindlyNo, rubber ring, rubber ring
Rubber ring, rubber ring
Rubber ring, rubber ring, rubber ringNo, rubber ring
Rubber ring, rubber ringDo you love me like you used to ?
Rubber ring, rubber ring
Rubber ring, rubber ringYou're clever
Everybody's clever nowadays
You're clever
Everybody's clever nowadaysYou are sleeping
