She had eyes like crazy diamonds
|
Inuit feet of clay
|
they rolled the windows tight as they would go
|
It was a smoggy day
|
She looked up and asked me if I ever had a lover that I did not betray
|
And I turned on the radio and I looked the other way
|
She said you're smart, but in a stupid way
|
|
Chorus:
|
And this is the price that you pay
|
For being smart in a stupid way
|
You stand there staring while your lover walks away
|
Being smart, in a stupid way
|
|
The doors they close like eyelids
|
The train just pulled away
|
Sometimes I smell the perfume that she was wearing that day
|
And i wonder if there's anyone that i'll ever love in any way
|
Maybe I'll grow up and be good someday
|
Maybe this pain I feel will go away
|
|
Chorus
|
And this is the price that you pay
|
For being smart in a stupid way
|
You stand there staring while your lover walks away
|
Being smart, in a stupid way
|
So why is my heart so hollow
|
Why are my dreams so shallow
|
And why don't I ever have anything else to say
|
And why is my love so far away
|
|
Chorus Chorus:
|
And this is the price that you pay
|
For being smart in a stupid way
|
You stand there staring while your lover walks away
|
Being smart, in a stupid way.
