Please don't let's talk about what is and what is not the case
If I got tired of you I'd tell you to your face
The way you pick your words when you're describing me
It seems you're far outside my personality
I have no cause to be dissatisfied with you
So I can't understand what cure I'm stretching to
We once surveyed our prospects, now we reminisce
Would I have come if I'd anticipated this?
O take these puritans away!
Open the window dear I need a breath of air
The sky is cloudless and there's no disorder there
Pull on some clothes and we'll consider what to do
To fill the s***e before we're back here in this room
Away!
We'll walk the districts and we'll watch the passers-by
All these familiar scenes make difference seem a lie
If we compose ourselves and try to look our best
We might at last provoke each other's interest
When we pass other couples walking on the street
Or in a restaurant study faces as we eat
We set to wondering in great perplexity
The secret they possess that's barred from you and me
O take these puritans away!
