If I don't show up on Monday morning They'll say I must have had a bad weekend And if I don't show my face by Thursday afternoon They'll think that I got something going with a new friend In a week they will replace me In a month they'll write me off In a year they will hardly remember my name And it's all the same What difference does it make What difference does it all really make If I don't call my friends from one week to another They'll say that's just his social style And if I don't come around to the current hangout They'll say he's sure to turn up after a while In a week they'll talk about me In a month a mystery In a year they won't even remember my name And it's all the same What difference does it make What difference does it all really make I used to think I was a real person Because you said you were in love with me It never crossed my mind that you didn't mean it Just goes to show you how wrong you can be In a week you won't be lonely In a month you'll find a friend In a year you'll tell him I was just a station on your way But anyway what difference does it make What difference does it all really make What difference does it all make
