Overexcited

(album: Scam - 2000)

Whenever you get overexcited, you never do anything about it
You get ignored forever, and you can never pretend to be about your symmetry

If there's one thing I know about you, you're as happy as you've ever been
So why the cold shoulder, 'cause that ain't your new friend

If there's one thing I know about it, it's gonna come to an end
And your new friends will all grow so cold

It's such a fine, fine line between what gets you up and what drags you down
It's all about looking out for number one
But you better watch your hedonism, 'cause you can never pretend to be about reality, no

If there's one thing I know about you, you're as happy as you've ever been
So why the cold shoulder now, 'cause that ain't your best friend

If there's one thing I know about it, it's gonna come to an end
And your new friends will all grow colder
So see on the ground, don't you believe them

You shouldn't get so overexcited, and you know, you should not get so self absorbed
Cause you can't stay alive forever and you can never depend on me for your immortality, no, oh, no

If there's one thing I know about you, you're just as happy as you've ever been
So don't give me your cold shoulder

If there's one thing I know about it all, you know it's all gonna come to an end
And your new friends will all grow colder
So see on the ground, never believe them
You'd better not believe them
