mary lyrics

If you talk to Mary please don't look at me Cause she's never seen me before Don't call attention to the man outside of me Cause she can cut my head off with the blinking of her eye And I'm not supposed to be here and I'm too young to die I'm not surprised, this happens all the time I go bouncing like a pinball in between extremes See, she carries my confusion in the pocket of her jeans And my hand lights her cigarette inside my mind And she's never seen me before So if you talk to Mary please don't mention me I just peek around the statues spitting art and foreign trade Cause she's never seen me before Just let me hide behind the smoke and the pleasantries Cause I do my best work with the mannequin brigade Till I'm sick of my surroundings while I'm not here at all She looks a hole right through me to a shadow on the wall I'm not surprised this happens all the time And she's never seen me before And my hand lights her cigarette inside my mind Warhol monotone, robotic talk, we're all so smart we're so perceptive To receptive But her mouth doesn't move, except to smile to be polite I'm safely cool, I'm so deceptive I'd give my right arm for a different situation She burns me with a glance. I look away I set myself up for this stupid situation Convince myself I see everybody watching me
