Birthday boy can’t explain
Christmas eve he’s born again
On the line a broken train
Going nowhere endless rain

Birthday boy so afraid
Plays the machines in the arcade

Oh baby do you remember
He’s been through all this before
Spent the summer getting nowhere
Taking all of the blame for the city
Calculating from pain comes pity

Christmas Eve a time of joy
If you believe in Birthday boy
This time around it’s all a mistake
Is he deluded or just a fake

Oh baby do you remember
He’s been through all this before
Spent the summer getting nowhere
Taking all of the blame for the city
Calculating from pain comes pity

If you knew his name
Would you feel the same
If you knew his name

Birthday boy stands apart
As the drama’s about to start
A quick betrayal, a speedy trial
As before, complete denial

Oh baby do you remember
He’s been through all this before
Spent the summer getting nowhere
Taking all of the blame for the city
Calculating from pain comes pity

If you knew his name
Would you feel the same

Look at me
I’m just so?
Look at me
I’m just so?
Look at me
I’m just so groovy

(Verse)

Feeling good
In the mood
That’s the state I’m in
Always will
dress to kill
Let the show begin
I’ve earned the moment
I’ve got to be seen
I’m gonna go out
and live beyond the dream

(Chorus)

Look at me
I’m just so?
Look at me
I’m just so?
Look at me
I’m just so groovy

Oh yeah!

(Verse 2)

When they see
the latest me
people stop and stare
I don’t mind
I’m on cloud nine
I can walk on air
I’ve earned the moment
I’ve got to be seen
I’m gonna go out
and live beyond the dream

(Chorus)

Look at me
I’m just so?
Look at me
I’m just so?
Look at me
I’m just so groovy
