dear mr. and/or mrs. sender-
we re pleased to inform you that your applications been accepted
starting from the time you get this letter
your life will be one never-ending hope you re feeling better
you get your choice of an aesthetic
we ll need to chop your clock off (tick tock tick tock tick tock tick tock)
it might not be what you expected
there is no money back once you ve been ripped off
today s a very special day
the boys ll murder for it but what will the neighbors say
it leaves you feeling pretty hollow
it might be nice to look at
don t forget you re stuck with it
tomorrow and tomorrow, and tomorrow
you re big enough to stop pretending
you ll start to really show within a week or so
so don t go saying it s just come to your attention
you ll get more than you re asking for without the right protection
today s a very special day
and how you d love to have a little thing with which to play
but love wont get you very far
today be still your beating heart
you ll have to keep on feeding it
tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow
boys will be boys will be boys will be boys will be boys
will be boys will be girls with no warning
girls will be girls will be guys will be boys that don t cry
over toys that they use to beat girls they despise by the morning
they always said that sex would change you...
no second thoughts the knife is nearing
you ll never hear the little pitter patter pitter patter
of this little feat of engineering
of course i love you and of course it s what s inside that matters
but i think the whole charade is ending
it seems to me to be the only way to keep from getting
caught up in a long life of regretting
the doctors said that once you get a taste for it you ll keep on cutting
but while you happen to be here
why don t you whisper all those sweet forevers in my ear
stiff upper lip for all this sorrow
hurry up and stick it in
you never when it will end
tomorrow or tomorrow or tomorrow...
they always said that sex would change you...
