Interesting and sophisticated
Refusing to be celebrated
It's a monumental big screen kiss
It's so deep, it's meaningless
One day you'll just up and quit
And that'll be it
Just then the stripper stopped in a coughing fit
She said, "Sorry I can't go on with this"
Yeah, that's awful close
But that's not why
I'm so hard done by
It was true cinema àclef
You should see it before there's nothing left
In an epic too small to be tragic
You'll have to wait a minute 'cause it's an instamatic
Yeah, that's awful close
But that's not why
I'm so hard done by
Just then the room became more dimly lit
As the emcee carried on with it
And now that I got you all strangely compelled
I'm afraid Candy's not feeling well
Close, that's not why
I'm so hard done by
