I can't believe how far you would go
with what insane and silly bravado
throwing away everything there's been between us
for the sake of a little fuss
just to prove me wrong
just to prove that I'm wrong
I'm not sure what you would exactly do,
jump off the Eiffel Tower
or break up a curfew
let the kids dance a crazy foxtrot
perched on the guardrail of a boat
just to prove me wrong
just to prove that I”m wrong
just to prove me wrong
Would you run some mad chemical experiment
Leaving a twenty yard diameter hole in the pavement?
Would you heave a Sisyphean rock
and roll it over and over along the block?
Just to prove me wrong
Just to prove that I”m wrong
Would you call on the highest authorities
on matters of love art science and philosophy
and ask the wise, the clever and the mighty
their surmise about what can possibly wrong with me?
Just to prove me wrong
Just to prove that I”m wrong
Just to prove me wrong
And just when I thought I've greatly improved my songwriting craft
You tell me everything I do is crap
That I chose a ridiculous name
That I'm definitely not cut out for this kind of game
With no attempt to hide the extent of your deprecation
You engage me in an endless conversation
Using debate as a bait for a pointless dispute
That leaves all of our guests completely mute
In order to prove all the folks in the room what kind of boring bloke I am
You make a point not to laugh at the jokes I throw around, they're lost on your deadpan
But you keep on talking to me with a foul mouth
Even if everybody has left the house
And when you're done making fun of my favorite bands
You don't mind letting things really get out of hands
And If I boast : “don't bother, I'm indestructible, I've got an iron coat”
I'll wake up to find you thrusting a knife on my throat
Just to prove me wrong
Just to prove that I”m wrong
Just to prove me wrong
