|
I'm insane over |
|
Cellophane |
|
She knows how to entertain me |
|
I'm inane over |
|
Cellophane |
|
She knows how to really sustain me |
|
She keeps me warm like counterpane |
|
She wakes me up like summer rain |
|
She elevates me like a steel crane |
|
But then in the same machine like way |
|
She drops me back down again. |
|
I'm so vain over |
|
Cellophane |
|
She knows how to picture frame me |
|
It's all the same to |
|
Cellophane |
|
She knows how to window pane me |
|
She strains my nerves in a funny way |
|
She drains my energy away |
|
There's not a grain of truth in what she says |
|
But if she don't remain |
|
I'll stain my reputation. |
|
I may not be twenty one but |
|
I'm not done with yet. |

AL (Cellophane) (Cellophane) |
|
She keeps me warm like counterpane |
|
She wakes me up like summer rain |
|
She elevates me like a steel crane |
|
But then in the same machine like way |
|
She drops me back down again. |
|
She's the tear me up and throw me down |
|
A delicate see through summer gown. |
|
She the things appertaining (Things appertaining) |
|
To things unremaining (Things unremaining) |
|
She's the same (She's the same) |
|
A Cellophane (Cellophane) |
|
Hard to restrain (Hard to restrain) |
|
She's so hard to contain (Hard to contain) |
|
Discards me like cellophane (Cellophane) |
|
We hear the cellos playing. |
