lyrics

You’re really hard to step on
Especially since you don’t mind
(You never seem to mind)
(I know it’s not right)
You’re really hard to punch
Since you’re made of rubber
(you’re a block of rubber)
(I know you’re much tougher)
Make some time
Screw your head on tight
Get a life
Are you okay?
Cause I’m fine

You know you’re really hard
(Left a scar...)
(You know you left a scar)
To deal with
(I feel it itch)
I know
You tolerate it, can’t accept it
(I could just leave]
You’re really hard to talk to
Especially cause you’re mute
(I can’t talk....)
(I’m deaf or your mute)

You’re really hard to get close to
Since I don’t know which, one is you
(I don’t know, who you are)
(Who are you? Are you new?)
I take the time
To be by your side
I lost the will to be
(I am lost)
Are you okay?
Cause I’m fine (I guess I’m fine)

You know you’re really hard
(Left a scar...)
(You know you left a scar)
To deal with
(I feel it itch)
I know
You tolerate it, can’t accept

You know, this album, and particularly "Perfect World" give this sort of "your life is what you make it" kind of theme to it---all while being served with a very hip and catchy melody...personally I'm transitioning from #3 to #2 in terms of this song, and it only took 23 years! Aaron Jay Turkheimer
