Say, say what you mean 'Cause I, I can't read your mind Please, please teach me telepathy I can't get to sleep My thoughts are my enemies They sing to me A carousel song Revolving around my head With what you said
I'm so tired but so awake Solutions come but much too late Say, say what you want 'Cause I, I can't read your mind Please, please teach me telepathy
I'd die for your sins, We both cry in sympathy With our cruelty And nobody wins But I lose more expertly So you turn and flee The saints come marching in I sing myself to sleep again
Say, say what you mean 'Cause I, I can't read your mind Please, please teach me telepathy I can't get to sleep, my songbird captivity Oh, sing to me!
