Talk to Him

Give me a plate and I'd break it Show me a smile and I'd cry Give me your love and I'd hate it Tell me the truth and I'd lie Give me a crust and I'd burn it Show me the way and I'd shout Give me a page and I'd turn it Well you could never put me down Misunderstood like a cockroach (As tasty as a crab) Who just tries to live for the day (My world's on my back) People won't need to be frightened (As frightened as I am) Excepting I was born this way Don't sweep me under the carpet (Tomorrow I'll be there) Don't file me away for my sins (There's some I can repair) Friends are now beginning to say (So pleased with their despair) How come I don't talk to him I didn't talk to him Give me an egg and I'd suck it Show me the sun and I'd freeze Give me a nest and some honey Keep all the birds and the bees, please Helplessness under my wing People said don't talk to him
