[Intro] People say that I'm too sarcastic Maybe there's some truth to that That’s my way to deal with the drastic And stupid things said, so just relax [Verse 1] Truth be told, I envy you And all the great things that you do I’m just an extra, you’re the star I’m the can, but you’re the caviar You're the cat's pajamas and the slippers too Why would I say it if it wasn’t true? You don’t look fat in that dress 'Cause don’t they say that more is less? [Pre-Chorus] Oh no, oh yeah [Chorus] People say that I’m somewhat cynical Maybe they’re not too far off There’s no need to get all hysterical So pay no mind if I should scoff [Verse 2] When I was young my mom told me "Boy, you watch too much TV!" But if I didn’t, where would I be? No sense of humour, no self-esteem Without it, I don’t know how I’d cope How would I get all Dennis Miller's jokes? Without my food, I cannot grow So just think if I missed my cooking shows [Pre-Chorus] Oh no, oh yeah [Chorus] People say that I'm too sarcastic Maybe there's some truth to that That’s my way to deal with the drastic And stupid things said, so just relax [Bridge] You’re so calm and collected And also quite introspective I can only hope to endeavour, and I’d be happy to be half as clever as you [Pre-Chorus] Oh no, oh yeah [Chorus] People say that I'm too sarcastic Maybe there's some truth to that That’s my way to deal with the drastic And stupid things said, so just relax People say that I’m somewhat cynical Maybe they’re not too far off There’s no need to get all hysterical So pay no mind if I should scoff [Outro] People say that I'm too sarcastic
