Who is this empty shallow shell You claim with swaggering pride? She looks like so much crackerjack Without the prize inside. A pretty wrapper, to be sure I can't deny you that. But if she's deeper than an inch I swear I'll eat my hat. I hope she's only window dressing Something bright to make you smile. Cause if you get your heart involved, I doubt it would survive the trial. And don't remind me that she's here Only because I broke your heart You know that even when together We were always worlds apart. Don't think this is just jealous talk That some small torch still burns within Any guy who yearns for love Deserves more than a mannequin. |
