[Verse 1]
Ears twitch, like a dog
Breaking eggs in a dish
Do not mock me when I say
This is not a lie
[Verse 2]
It's a funny thing, half serious
With our hands on our ears
Living dreams with mouths ajar
Wide awake, we go to sleep
[Chorus]
However absurd, however absurd... It may seem
However absurd, however absurd... It may seem
[Bridge]
Something special between us
When we made love the game was over
I couldn't say the words
Words wouldn't get my feelings through
So I keep talking to you
[Chorus]
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
[Verse 3]
Custom made dinosaurs
Too late now, for a change
Everything is under the sun
But nothing is for keeps
[Chorus]
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... that may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd, however absurd,... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
Ears twitch, like a dog
Breaking eggs in a dish
Do not mock me when I say
This is not a lie
[Verse 2]
It's a funny thing, half serious
With our hands on our ears
Living dreams with mouths ajar
Wide awake, we go to sleep
[Chorus]
However absurd, however absurd... It may seem
However absurd, however absurd... It may seem
[Bridge]
Something special between us
When we made love the game was over
I couldn't say the words
Words wouldn't get my feelings through
So I keep talking to you
[Chorus]
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
[Verse 3]
Custom made dinosaurs
Too late now, for a change
Everything is under the sun
But nothing is for keeps
[Chorus]
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... that may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd, however absurd,... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
However absurd, however absurd... it may seem
