An Idiot's End

Lyricist:John Lennon, Paul Mc Cartney

I don't have to say a thing
She knows exactly what I want
And anytime I feel like this
What we have goes out for lunch

She looks at me like a gun cocked
And I'm afraid to turn my back
For fear of being locked

She leans forward for me to see
That the lights of her majesty
She's tempting me with a razor blade
But time is money at a penny arcade

There's forgiving in the shadows
Birds that are afraid of being laid
The court jester holds up a light bulb and says
All that is made is made to decay

To know her is to love her
And I love her but I don't know her
To know her is to love her
And I love her but I don't know her

I, I feel for a place to sit
Things always go on this way
I'm lost for a little bit
Till I come up with something to say

Then I'll go on and on
About rat skulls in her lawn
I'll not specifically mention names
Her and I know, we're just a shame

She knows I'm here
And she readily rebukes her sister
She treats me with a sudden respect
Suddenly she calls me, 'Mister'

But just as soon, I soon forget
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
And start poking around in the trash
Talking myself into outer space
And watching the reactions on her face

To know her is to love her
And I love her but I don't know her
To know her is to love her
And I love her but I don't know her

The picture of her sitting there
Being her on that chair
I can only say as much as I please
But not as much as I dare

Where is the little girl who fell in love with me?
The girl who fell in love with a satellite
That little girl's moved out now
But the satellite still comes around, most every other night

I think my interest bleeds a heart
Of a dead dog
Lying in her yard

I could catch her standing naked
I could catch her cold
I could catch her breath and bottle it
But I could never catch her off guard

And I go there nowadays
It's like visiting a sinking ship
And I'm a man overboard
And she won't throw me a lifeline
Symbolically represented by her lips

Yes, to know her is to love her
And I love her but I don't know her
To know her is to love her
And I love her but I don't know her
No, no, no, no
