Baby I can't help but think we're just tracing
Maybe I just need a drink cuz this loves bitter tasting
It's really no one's fault I'm sure you'll say we're fine
But when it's time to take the blame out
It'll be me that takes it for a ride
I'd agree to be a martyr for the cause that's just me
But I'll only be a martyr for the cause
If the cause is the real thing
I won't give my life for a pantomime
I won't give up every thing I know
For a caricature of what we used to be
The parody ain't worth the sacrifice
Baby I'd die for us just not the pantomime.
Baby imma need some help I'm sure you'll know
To get this off broadway play on the road
You gotta believe me it won't come easy
No one can deny our chemistry
Cause even when I know I know
We're phoning it in I get up for the show
But I won't show up tonight for a pantomime
I can't afford to get tied up I'm this more than twice.
So go on kill the lights drop the curtin
You know we don't deserve this
It's just not right we can't go down in a pantomime.
I wont give my life for a pantomime
I won't give up every thing I know
For a caricature of what we used to be
I'm sure you'll agree goin through the motions ain't a life
Baby I'd die for us just not the pantomime
