Someone Like You
Oh it's so good
To spend some time with you
But only a bit
When I'm feeling impulsive
You look really nice
And your mind's OK too
But after a while
I find you repulsive
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
And the things you like us both to do
Improve with others too
Those photos I asked to take of your face meant
I was making a reference to find your replacement
Although the problem is probably me
It's easier to exchange you - and free
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
You don't smell bad
In fact the odour's pleasant
Your breath's not stale
Your clothes, co-ordinated
Your sense of humour
Is charming, always present
Yet overall
You leave me nauseated
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
And the things you like us both to do
Would be better with someone new
The lock of your hair which I keep in my home
Is kept in case science can create a clone
Without the defects, which they'll cure
Though what those are, I'm still not sure
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
I've been given the direction
To overlook all imperfection
And that does have some power
For perhaps half an hour
I've tried to be fair
But I'm always aware
I'll have to leave quick
Or else I'll be sick
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
And the things you like both us to do
Would be better with someone new
I'm checking out people with similar appellatives
And gradually working my way through all of your relatives
Maybe there's some world where you're the only one
But these other options all seem so much more fun
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
And the things you like both us to do
Would be better with anybody
Absolutely anybody else other than you
I could write another line here but I really can't be bothered
Because the ultimate message I hope has got through to you now
Is that I just want you to leave me alone
I don't know what it is but there's something about you that just makes me want to be sick
You make me want someone like you
But not actually you
Not you
Not you
To spend some time with you
But only a bit
When I'm feeling impulsive
You look really nice
And your mind's OK too
But after a while

You make me want someone like you

And the things you like us both to do
Improve with others too

Not you
Not you
