I'm not one to point and stare

That's a no-go

I'll twitch my nose

Or I twist my hair

That is all you'll ever know

Only if I were someone else

You might hear me

Come right out and say

What I feel

But that's not my way

People know me say I am

A man of few words

But if you think

I don't give a damn

There is nothing more absurd

If something really gets my goat

I'll let you know

In my uptight English way

So just don't

Get me started today

Such trite

Uptight

Polite Interaction

It's a lie

Cut and dried

And refined

To abstraction

I'm in a state of perpetual dread

That you'll all guess

The vicious thoughts inside my head

Paranoia more or less

So I must hide what I am

Behind a veil of calm civility

Such a sham

And so tiring for me

Such trite

Uptight

Polite interaction

It's a lie, cut and dried

And refined to abstraction

People know me say I am

If you think I don't give a damn

If something really gets my goat

I'll let you know

In my uptight English way

So just don't

Get me started today

Such trite, uptight

Polite interaction

It's a lie, cut and dried

And refined to abstraction

So just don't

Just don't

Get me started today

So just don't

Just don't

Get me started today

So just don't, just don't

Get me started today

Don't, don't

Don't, don't, DON'T!
