[Verse 1]
She wandered through the garden fence
And said, "I've brought at great expense
A potion guaranteed to bring
Relief from all your suffering"
Although I said, "You don't exist"
She grasped me firmly by the wrist
And threw me down upon my back
Strapped me to her torture rack

[Bridge 1]
And without further argument
I found my mind was also bent
Upon a course so devious
It only made my torment worse

[Verse 2]
She said, "I see you cannot speak
Is it your voice that is too weak?
Is it your tongue that is to blame?
Maybe you cannot speak for shamе
Or has your brain been idle, too
And now it will not think for you?"
I hastened to makе my reply
And found that I could only lie
[Bridge 2]
And like a fool I, believed in myself
And thought I was somebody else
But she could see what I was then
And left me on my own again

[Bridge 3]
But she could see what I was then
And left me on my own again
And like a fool, I believed in myself
And I told everybody in the neighborhood
Especially all the girls that I bet I could

[Outro]
And thought I was somebody else
But she could see what I was then
And left me on my own again
And like a fool I, believed in myself
And thought I was somebody else...
