"Don't ask me to be faithful, don't ask me to be good

Don't ask me to be generous; I wouldn't if I could

Don't ask me to be impolite; you know I always will

Don't ask me if I'm well, when you know I'm always ill

Don't try to make me understand reality and stuff

Don't push me to the limit; don't stretch your luck too far

I know who I am; do you know who you are?"
