This is what happens to people who meddle in my affairs
When they think I’m not looking at them
But I am
It’s a balancing act and I can’t balance
And I can’t act too well, apparently
Apparently
How should I act in a crowd?
Should I voice my feelings
For acquaintances?
Should I feel lucky to be part of the wheeling and dealing
No matter what is said?
No matter
Shake hands and smile and hope for the best
As they size you up to see if you can pass their test
Pass their test
Well, it’s a social science, it’s crowd control
To get real good at it
You have to learn to pretend
Again and again
How should I act in a crowd?
Should I voice my feelings
For acquaintances?
Should I feel lucky to be part of the wheeling and dealing
No matter what is said?
Do I have to throw trust out the window?
I always hoped that you’d be right below me
With your arms outstretched
You might catch me accidentally
It matters
It matters
It matters to me
It matters
It matters
It matters to me
It matters
It matters
It matters to me
It matters
It matters
It matters to me
It matters
It matters
It matters to me
It matters
It matters
It matters to me
