Negative love   Skeptical lies beneath the frown   Negative love   You're always putting other people down   Then they're gone   As they fade away well who's to say that you were wrong?      Negative love   The radio's playing my request   Negative love   You lie before me unimpressed   Why say yes?   When you know all the ways to say “no” best?      Please don't make an exception for me   Don't make an exception   There's no hope for me and you   'Cause I'm a little negative too      Cynical you   I see the look that's in your eyes   Cynical you   And it's saying I don't sympathize   No surprise   Only the naive believe in love and other lies and      Please don't make an exception for me   Don't make an exception   There's no hope for me and you   'Cause I'm a little negative too   I'm a little negative too      We're the wrong side of one   I should change my name to John (?)   Or maybe we're onto something   Could we end up positive after all?      Please don't lower your standards for me   Don't lower your standards   There's no hope for me and you   'Cause I'm a little negative too      There's nothing for me and you   Cause I'm a little negative   I'm a little cynical   I'm a little negative   I'm a little critical   I'm a little negative too
