Savant

Said ring me up but you're never home
Seems no point in pickin' up the phone
Crowd about and I feel all alone
Wear me down like a rock on stone

Come on let's go you delay and stall
Invite me in then build up a wall
Left on the hook waiting in the hall
Leave on my own you begin to trawl

Think I'm wakin' up from this long endless dream
Rerun of a tired worn out & played movie scene
Tying up loose ends come apart at the seams
Time to switch the picture to a new screen

Think I'm rousin' up from my stagnant state of mind
Losing the straps which used to firmly hold and bind
Tightly wound clock rapid spins and unwinds
Second-minute hands become intertwined

What do you want
Why do you flaunt
My but you haunt
Call the savant

Hey let's head out get out on the run
Turn shoot me down not wanting any fun
Introduce my friends but you turn and shun
Pass the ball but you're one and done

Believe I'm rousing up from my lame nonchalance
Comatose mirage in which I was firmly ensconced
Your voice mail I received was my only response
Felt like a ton of bricks without any nuance

Now that I am stirred from my endless reverie
Horizon up ahead appears uncluttered and free
Open road unfolding is all I can see
Time to jumpstart and commence the journey

What do you want
Why do you flaunt
My but you haunt
Call the savant
What do you want
Why do you flaunt
My but you haunt
Call the savant

Uh oh it's you
Hope it's not true
Uh oh it's you
Please don't fool
Uh-oh it's you
Why now so soon
Uh-oh it's you
Quick change the tune
