it's nothing, it's so normal you
just sit there I could play so much
but I don't go there cuz I don't want to
I was thinking if you were lonely
maybe we could play here and no one would know
at least not to the point that we would think so

everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about
some other gnome
it's best if we all keep it under our pointy hats
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
but I'm loney now, and I don't know how
to get it back to gnome

this don't mean that, I own you
this ain't no good, in fact you're phony as plastic
but things worked out just like I wanted too
if you see me out you don't know me
try to turn your little head, try to give me some room
to figure out just what I'm going to do

and everyone here, hates everyone here for collecting just like
they do
it's best if we all keep this quiet instead
and I couldn't tell, why everyone here was looking at me like
they do
but I'm sorry now, and I don't know how
to get it back to gnome

everyone here, is wondering what it's like to be with
some other gnome
everyone here's to blame, everyone here
gets caught up in the pleasure of the play, everyone hides
shades of sage, but looking inside they're not the same, they're
not the same
and we're all grown ups now, but we don't know how
to get it back to gnome

everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking 'bout
some other gnome
it's best if we all keep this under our pointy hats
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
but they're sold out now, and I don't know how, sold out now
there's no getting back to gnome
