Don't really know ya and that is the truth
You look familiar like someone I once knew
Like a sister I had way back in my youth
You say that you know me but what do you know
Some guy you can judge
Some guy you can demean
You say you're my sister and that may be true
But show me the form that says I'm related to you
However you think, however you think it
However we share antipathy
You are dead, you are dead to me
I know what you're thinking or maybe I don't
I thought that I did but I could be wrong
I don't know your signals. don't know your intentions
Don't know your number, ding dong
You think I'm opaque, you think I'm a dummy
Never done nothing good or even worthwhile
But all I see when I look at you
Is a vacant stare and a forced smile
We have an agreement, whatever it is
Doesn't make much sense and it seems pretty dumb
We pretend that we care when we couldn't care less
You are not my pal and I am not your chum
It's been this way for more than 60 years
And it's highly likely that it will always be
So I'm putting a stop to this pointless charade
I'm telling you that you are dead to me
