A.K.A.
I'm also known as me, myself
My picture's on the wall
And in my wallet
My name's on the deeds
And all the letters
I really should know
But I don't have a clue
A clue, a clue, a clue
Neighbours say hello and goodbye to me
They know me well, even better than myself
A.K.A.K.A.K.A.
Oh well, I keep forgetting
Uh-huh, no use regretting now
Trying to establish myself
Singing tunes and going shopping
I write in my diary
It doesn't mean much
But every minute of the week counts
It counts, it counts, it counts
Neighbours say hello and goodbye to me
They know me well, even better than myself
A.K.A.K.A.K.A.
Oh well, I keep forgetting
Uh-huh, no use regretting now
I'm also known as me, myself
My picture's on the wall
And in my wallet
My name's on the deeds
And all the letters
I really should know
But I don't have a clue
A clue, a clue, a clue
Neighbours say hello and goodbye to me
They know me well, even better than myself
A.K.A.K.A.K.A.
A.K.A.K.A.K.A.
A.K.A.K.A.K.A.
aaaaaaaaaaaaah, etc.
Shivers
I've been contemplating suicide, But it really doesn't suit my style, So I think I'll just act bored instead And contain the blood I would've shed She makes me feel so ill at ease My heart is really on its knees But I keep a poker face so well That even mother couldn't tell But my baby's so vain She is almost a mirror And the sound of her name Sends a permanent shiver down my spine Down my spine I keep her photograph against my heart For in my life she plays a starring part All alcohol and cigarettes There is no room for cheap regret She makes me feel so ill at ease My heart is really on its knees But I keep a poker face so well That even mother couldn't tell But my baby's so vain That she is almost a mirror And the sound of her name Sends a permanent shiver down my spine Down my spine Spine, etc. |
