 It's been so long now,
Since my friends have seen me smile,
I'm drinking coffee,
Like it's going out of style,
In the oval office of my heart,
I'm on my knees,
Giving head to get ahead,
I haven't heard a word you've said,
'cause I got my earplugs in,
I got my Ray Bans on,
I'm putting on my thickest skin,
Just in case I meet someone,
Are you gonna burn me,
With a cigarette again?
Doesn't really matter now,
Didn't really matter then.
Oh, what a beautiful nightmare,
This has turned out to be,
And I said,
Oh, God what a beautiful nightmare,
You have chosen for me.
It's been so long now,
Since I had a good night's sleep,
Instead of counting them,
The sheep are counting me,
I'm winding up the cat,
Oh no!
And putting out the clock,
Now the clock is running slow,
And the cat won't speak to me.
(Chorus)
There must be some mistake,
Won't somebody came wake me up,
Before I break down?
There must be some mistake,
Won't somebody came shake,
This dry martini I'm swimming in?
I'm swimming in now
