no sir. so sir
you didn't catch me hesitating
it's inhuman
for me to leave you waiting

let's see...
eyes are dull and morose
it won't take the usual dose
of saccharin and vitamins
to blanket the symptoms
no wait, it should give up
this is a hopeless case
sir, you have a shifting fiction
with a pretty girl's face

this wasn't in my job description
i didn't sign up for my condition
i won't doll it up with lily lace
i've got a fractured case
i've got an unstoppable case
incomplete and all sorts of ******. sorry.
