Mirror Images (Live)

Lyrics

[Intro] Monsieur, s'il vous plait [Instrumental] [Verse 1] If I'm the mirror and you're the image Then what's the secret between the two These 'me's and 'you's, how many can there be? Oh, I don't mind that around the place As long as you keep it away from me [Verse 2] I've begun to regret that we ever met Between the dimensions It gets such a strain to pretend that the change Is anything but cheap... With your infant pique and your angst pretensions Sometimes you act like such a creep [Bridge 1] And now I'm standing in the corner Looking at the room and the furniture In cheap imitation of alienation and grief And now we're going to the kitchen Fix ourselves a drink and a cigarette Getting no closer to being the joker or thief Who's the joker? Who's the thief? Who's the joker? Who's the thief? [Verse 3] Still, I reflect, it's a nervous wreck Who stands before me can see as well Can surely tell that he's not yet free; He can turn aside, but can no more ignore me Than know which one of us is he Than tell what he is going to be Than know which one of is me [Instrumental] [Outro] Take the mirror away Take the mirror away Take the mirror away And when it's gone, then the real one will stay And now we're going to the kitchen Fix ourselves a drink and a cigarette Getting no closer to being the joker or thief
