It's no longer about those senior prom dances
No longer about white knights and long lances
The game changed quite a some time ago
No virgins applying as clean as the driven snow,

This manic world that I'm in
Just some kind of comedian spin
Left behind by a girl named Lynn
Is wanting true love such a sin?

Sorry baby that I weighed you down
I only delayed your involvement with another clown
So sorry baby gosh I would rather drown
Then stand in the way of your newly acquired crown,

Anyway, I needed a way to get out of this town
Escaping from slender mistresses in their night gowns
Who get hustled by new boyfriends who make the rounds
Oh that tell tale groan of passionate sounds,

This the anthem of the lonely man
Not enough money though he does the best he can
Just the flirtation of empty sands
He's not the one for a princess and her plans,

Jesus Baby I thought you valued a true man
Okay, so that was part of your scam
Your self serving goal was the expendable handsome Dan
But knowing you Babe you'll take what you can!

This manic world that I'm living in
Just some kind of comedian spin
Left behind by a girl named Lynn
Is wanting true love such a sin?
