We obviously never will be lovers
For we don’t agree; which one’s the cliché?
I’m sure it’s the one about the feathers on the bird
You claim that it’s “opposites attract”
In all my life I ne’er did see a maid as fair as you
Alas, I’m often told I’m not and now you told me too
The fact I sing and I play guitar does not at all push your buttons
Our feathers do not match but I find opposites attract
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Seems I devote myself to you, and you yourself to art
I’d love to find out more of you, you make it really hard
The fact you paint and you stuff up cats does very much push my buttons
But you want someone more like you, not “opposites attract”
No! No! No!
No! No! No!
Oh tell me please why the hell can’t this bee
Get honey from this lovely flower?
Doesn’t that make you drool? My god, What a fool!
I’m sorry, in shame I will cower
Why is every word I come up with absurd
In your head and even in mine
Everything that I do, annoying to you.
I am sorry, I’m again out of line
The fact that I want to talk things out does not at all push your buttons
Our feathers do not match but I find opposites attract
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!
Yes they do
Yes it’s true
