Forever doesn't mean forever anymore
  I said forever
  But it doesn't look like I'm gonna be around much anymore
  When the heat gets sub-tropical
  And the talk gets so topical
  Riot act - you can read me the riot act
  You can make me a matter of fact
  Or a villain in a million
  A slip of the tongue is gonna keep me civilian
  
  Why do you talk such stupid nonsense
  When my mind could rest much easier
  Instead of all this dumb dumb insolence
  I would be happier with amnesia
  
  They say forget her
  Now it looks like you're either gonna be for me or against me
  I got your letter
  Now they say I don't care for the colour that it paints me
  Trying to be so bad is bad enough
  Don't make me laugh by talking tough
  Don't put your heart out on your sleeve
  When your remarks are off the cuff
