Something New from The Birdcage by Struwwelpeter

Wish you'd stay far away
This has fast become a private hell
Never say you're okay
Even if you were, I'd never tell
Pacified, nothing to hide
Keep me calm, give me peace of mind
I'll stare at you, it's all I can do

Talk to me pleasantly
I'll pretend to open up to you
What you see, blatantly
There's no guessing what we both could do
I'm afraid that you might hesitate
There's no need to let the hope shine through

And I know it's not the answer
That you were looking for
But I feel it's for the best
You don't need me anymore
Open up so many doors
Suspect you've been here before
(You kinda bug me)

I'm okay, sunny day
Did you think I didn't notice you?
What to say? Messing around this way
But I hope we both find something new

Price to pay, if I may
'Cause you know it's not exactly true
What to say? Messing around this way
It's my special kind of magic
That starts off fine and then winds up tragic
I hope we both find something new
