lyrics

Pokerface

I like it on the other side
I go there when I’m feeling tired

Hard to shave a double chin
Hard to get the razor in
Do it slow or you’ll cut your skin
Pokerface is wearing thin

I like it in the photographs
Hiding on your walls behind their glass

Cutting down your family tree
Being yourself where you’re meant to be
Standing in groups at the cemetery
Sounds a lot like you to me

And you know who I am
Can you feel my breath
Make a mess of your neck
What do you do next?
Can you see my death to my left
Is that why you left
Me?

I like it in the other room
Can I go back inside there soon?
The way you walk when you’re running late
Just another call to make
Don’t mind me I like to wait
Slows me down but that’s ok

And you know who I am
Can you feel my breath
Make a mess of your neck
What do you do next?
Can you see my death to my left
Is that why you left
Me?

I like it on the other side
I go there when I’m feeling tired
