I've always been a sucker for a pretty face

With one or two exceptions to the rule

But it seems like the one's who always catch my eye

Are the ones who talk like fools

I was hoping that you might be different

And that I might break the rut that I'm in

The way you turn to me with nothing to say

I knew that I'd done it again

The world keeps on turning

Like it has for millions of years

And your mind keeps on moving

With nothing but mud between your ears

You look so pretty when you're sitting in the sun

Like a statue with the gardens all around

But the beauty that I see in your eyes starts to fade

The minute that you open your mouth

The minute that you open your mouth

You looked so good you had a photogenic smile

I bet you look good up on screen

However silent movies went away years ago

And that's the only place they'd let you be

From across the room you know you look so good

I swore you were good enough to eat

But when I finally got my courage up to say hello to you

Intellectual defeat

The world keeps on turning

Like it has for millions of years

And your mind keeps on moving

With nothing but mud between your ears

You look so pretty when you're sitting in the sun

Like a statue with the gardens all around

But the beauty that I see in your eyes starts to fade

The minute that you open your mouth

The minute that you open your mouth

You look so pretty when you're sitting in the sun

Like a statue with the gardens all around

But the beauty that I see in your eyes starts to fade

The minute that you open your mouth

The minute that you open your mouth

The minute that you open your mouth

The minute that you open your mouth
