  • What are you, crazy?
    How in the hell can you say what you just said?
    I was talking to myself
    Shut the door and come to bed
    By the way, I forgot to say
    Your endearing mother called today

    Did you see Lisa?
    Yes, I saw Lisa
    Is that why you're angry?
    I wasn't angry
    Maybe a little
    Not even maybe
    Must be the weather
    Now don't be a baby
    Well, how am I supposed to feel
    With all the things you don't reveal

    And you can thank your lucky stars
    That we're not as smart as we'd like to think we are

    Would you like to talk about it?
    There's not much to say
    We had lunch this afternoon
    Her life's in disarray
    She still goes around as if she is always stumbling off a cliff
    Do you still want her?
    What are you saying?
    Do you still want her?
    Baby, stop playing
    Really, I mean it, can you forget her?
    Baby, now stop it
    You should know better
    I know this is hard to do
    But, there's no one for me but you

    And you can thank your lucky stars
    That we're not as smart as we'd like to think we are

    Baby, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I have no alibis
    I was acting like a fool and I apologize
    Listen, hon, I know you're dumb
    But that's okay, you don't have to look so glum
    Do you still love me?
    Yes, I still love you
    You mean, you're not just being nice
    No, I'm not just being nice
    Do you feel sleepy
    Aw, you're so sincere
    Yes, I feel sleepy
    Well, slide over here
    'Cause I may not be all that bright
    But I know how to hold you tight

    And you can thank your lucky stars
    That we're not as smart as we'd like to think we are
    And you can thank your lucky stars
    That we're not as smart as we'd like to think we are
    We can thank our lucky stars
    That we're not as smart as we'd like to think we are Writer/s: Dean Friedman
