Stupid Song

She's a melody; when she goes by she disturbs my soul

She's a melody and she's playing me with cool control

I try to keep a quiet heart but all in vain

I'm falling, falling in a trance again

She's a stupid song that once it's heard never goes away

She's a stupid song, sorely nagging me night and day

And just when I think she's gone, well! here she comes again

She's running around my brain

I will carve her name upon the air, not in wood or stone

I will carve her name and tell the world the beauty I've known

And when we both are dead and gone

The melody will carry on, yes, only the notes remain
