Album: Reading, Writing and Arithmetic
Where's the harm in voicing a doubt, you'll find me in the lavatory.
And where's the harm in talking out loud when I'm on my own?
What's so wrong with reading my stars when I'll be in the lavatory?
And what is so wrong with counting the cars when I'm all alone?
You're not the only one that I know and I'm too proud to talk to you anyway.
You're not the only one that I know and I'm far too proud to talk to you any day.
So I say I'm in love with the world, and what is so wrong with voicing a doubt when I'm on my own?
It's perfectly fine to sleep in a chair from Monday 'til Saturday.
And what is so wrong with talking out loud when I'm all alone?
You're not the only one that I know and I'm too proud to talk to you anyway.
You're not the only one that I know but I'm far too proud to talk to you any day.
So they rode out west to the seaside and they gladly decided to stay.
After two hours wandering outside, ooh, the sea air drove them away, yeah.
You're not the only one that I know and I'm too proud to talk to you anyway.
You're not the only one that I know and I'm far too proud to talk to you any day.
You're not the only one but I'm far too proud you're,
son, you're young, but I know, I know, I know, I know I'm far too proud to talk to you any day
but if you do, don't you know, that I don't mind, no, no, no.
