you claim, i'm makin all the moves
take a last chance, all the fantasies we had never came true
i do it all for you its been a lost cause thick and thin come clean
cause you're so cool, i'm infatuated by all the heights that, i'll never reach
so why do i try, i see it in your eyes bad news dont read the front page

call it what you wanna call it, you never call back let's call it even
and i'll have you know i'll have you know that, my broken record never skips a beat
save face another day (save face another day) i won't try to fly so don't convince me

sometimes the picture isnt clear that photograph's a reminder on the wall
of a good year, gotta get your story straight last call for consequence
i'm sayin you talk a good game, laugh now just wait to be the
story of the week and have everyone talkin about you
open wide i got a spoon a little oz of self respect comes easy

call it what you wanna call it, you never call back let's call it even
and i'll have you know i'll have you know that, my broken record never skips a beat
save face another day (save face another day) i won't try to fly so don't convince me

say goodbye, to all the pins and needles recollect the rest of
my, scribbled little piece of paper nevermind how hard we
try, to cover up anxiety with tattoos and its so obvious for sure
you better ante up or take your best shot
