I don't know why I'm even up here
Cutting my heart on this dark sharp atmosphere
Once again giving you all that I got
And getting nothing for what I'm giving up

Tired of dealing with broken women
Who think the world owes them a living
And yes I know I'm a sad comedian
Stuck on stage with Amazonians

But I should've known
The minute that I saw you walking in
Leaving the jail
As if it were just a cheap two bit hotel

And you might as well
Have been wearing a chinchilla hell
Call up the Trojan women
And let's have a picnic on the dell

I'm not saying that I'm not grateful
For all the sadness you put in the maypole
But when you smiled I believed you were joyful
And not gearing up for a battle

I am not saying that I am innocent
Naïveté is a boy's favourite instrument
A little toy that he winds up
And promptly places down
And then runs away from

Still I should've known
The minute that I saw you walking in
Leaving the war
As if it were just a messed up happening

And you might as well
Have been wearing an ermine for goodness sake
Call up the Trojan women
And let's have a picnic on the lake

Call up the Trojan, Trojan women
Call up the Trojan, Trojan women

And you might as well
Yeah you might as well
Have been walking on in with them
With them
So there
You win

I don't know why I'm even up here
Cutting my heart on this dark sharp atmosphere
Once again giving you all that I got
And getting nothing for what I'm giving up
