[00:14.52] You've been watching over me
[00:18.30] Saying you're keeping me company
[00:22.10] I should be grateful, I suppose
[00:25.64] And compare you to a summer's rose
[00:31.41] You've been talking sweet to me
[00:35.01] About peace and loving harmony
[00:38.70] But I know what you say about me
[00:42.28] So now I tell you 'cause I gotta break free
[00:47.93] That I can't give you no false affection
[00:51.70] I can do without your phony charm
[00:55.19] This train ain't moving in your direction
[00:59.09] This piece of poetry is meant to do harm
[01:02.68] Please don't give me no warm reception
[01:06.25] What you call peace to me is a call to arms
[01:10.11] Some are singing to raise affection
[01:15.55] But this piece of poetry is meant to do harm
[01:39.61] So with what shall I compare thee?
[01:43.34] Summer's clay or winter's sleet?
[01:47.01] You made a non-believer out of me,
[01:50.68] Now you ask for my sympathy?
[01:54.56] Take your words and take your vows
[01:58.07] Take your flake-fuelled Buddhist bows
[02:01.82] Let the cool winds roughly shake
[02:05.52] Out all darling buds of fake
[02:09.33] I can't give you no false affection
[02:12.95] I can do without your phony charm
[02:16.46] This train ain't moving in your direction
[02:20.33] This piece of poetry is meant to do harm
[02:24.03] And don't you give me no warm reception
[02:27.56] What you call peace to me is a call to arms
[02:31.34] I'm not singing to raise affection
[02:36.85] This piece of poetry is meant to do harm
