I lied and told her I loved her

She didn't care but anyway

I told her we'd still be friends

And she didn't care but anyway

I tried last week for to call her

She wasn't home but anyway I think I'll spend my life alone

I really don't care right now, but anyway 



[Chorus]

It's a state of affairs and a state of emotions

The kind of thing that you must understand

I tell you one thing, you'll tell me another

We walk away, maybe even then shake hands



I'm quitting cigarette smoking, it's bad for me

But anyway, I don't think the TV was joking

When it told me this, but anyway

The newsman said not to sit on strange toilet seats

It's my life he's trying to save, but anyway

I found out that I got eye cancer

Too many television waves, but anyway



[Chorus]



Someday an answer will find us, quite a long shot

But anyway, I think the past the past is behind us

Be real confusing if not but anyway

I put all my hope in tomorrow, it's gonna be great

I can tell but anyway I see a new, a new day dawning

I like to sleep late, oh, well but anyway



[Chorus]
