Some afternoon tea   And that will do it for me   Did I conceive you   Or are you talkin' to me?      And I will read   My mind instead   And I could tell you   That you are very dead      I walk around town   And stare although I am blind   Maybe I'm patient   Or am I out of my mind?      And I will read your   Mind instead   And I could tell you   That you are very dead   You are not well read      If I could stay awake   Or at the very least pretend   In every way I'm feeling gone   Without this day I can't go on      And I could read your   Mind instead   And I could tell you   That you are very dead   You are not well read   You are very dead   You are not well read, dead
