And finally...LOVE IN THE ZEROX ROOM

LOVE IN THE ZEROX ROOM

I thought I found love in the zerox room
But I was wrong.
By the time you apologize for all your lies
I will be long gone.

Saying "I love you" is so humane
When you tell others the exact same thing!
An emotional roller coaster ride sounds pretty groovy -
Almost like the plot of some sad movie.

You're lacking in at least one social grace:
Asking another girl out right in front of my face!
Like twisting my arm 'till I can't stand the pain
Stop! I want to scream
But what is there to gain?

I thought I found love
But I was wrong
By the time you apologize for all your lies
I will be long gone.
