Faux Maux

Let me go on record
I can't take it much longer
It's all consuming
A made-up fear
A people fever
Ooh ooh

Call me up
I'll turn you down
Sit around
Wringing my hands
Oh call me up
So I can turn you down, count me in
But please don't make a sound

A simple get together
Plain human endeavour
L-a-u-laughter (elle est où l'after?)
And if you see me there
It's not because I care
I'm acting on a dare

So call me up
I'll turn you down
Sit around
Wringing my hands
Oh call me up
So I can turn you down, count me in
But please don't make a sound

With a deadly glare
Turnin' up a year too late, too bad
Broken time, see you later
Turning down another dare

With a switching stare
So was I out like a light or what?
Broken time generator

Why don't you acll me up
I'll turn you down
(I keep on turning you down)
Sit. around
Wringing my hands
(Turn you down if I can)
Oh call me up
So I can turn you down
(I keep on turning you down) Count me in
But please don't make a sound
