I`m insane over Cellophane
She knows how to entertain me
I`m inane over Cellophane
She knows how to really sustain me
She keeps me warm like counterpane
She wakes me up like summer rain
She elevates me like a steel crane
But then in the same machine like way
She drops me back down again.
I`m so vain over Cellophane
She knows how to picture frame me
It`s all the same to Cellophane
She knows how to window pane me
She strains my nerves in a funny way
She drains my energy away
There`s not a grain of truth in what she says
But if she don`t remain I`ll stain my reputation.
I may not be twenty one but I`m not done with yet.
INSTRUMENTAL
(Cellophane) (Cellophane)
She keeps me warm like counterpane
She wakes me up like summer rain
She elevates me like a steel crane
But then in the same machine like way
She drops me back down again.
She`s the tear me up and throw me down
A delicate see through summer gown.
She the things appertaining (Things appertaining)
To things unremaining (Things unremaining)
She`s the same (She`s the same)
A Cellophane (Cellophane)
Hard to restrain (Hard to restrain)
She`s so hard to contain (Hard to contain)
Discards me like cellophane (Cellophane)
We hear the cellos playing.
