Lyrics for A

A is for angry, which is what you are at me A is for adult, which is what I'll never be A is for applesauce, my favorite meal A is for Adam, which is how I sometimes feel; Like I'm the only man on earth and I've forgotten what that's worth A is for Arthur, he's a lovable drunk Amazing like Thelonius Monk A is for argument, A is for apparent A is for antagonism that's not even there and It's just you begging for attention or something I won't even mention. (Chorus) And I don't even know why you keep on trying I don't even know why I keep on lying There are millions of people in worlds of their own And two of them can't let go. A is for algebra, I learned it in school A is what Fonzie said, 'cause he was very cool. A is for adversery, A is for election A is arousal, you are giving me an erection C'mon I'm trying to show affection for longer than a half an hour. (Chorus) I met a woman I used to know Long before you, long ago All I could say, after hello Was "are you still single?" A is attitude I can't help but wield A is for arrogance; emotional shield A is for acting, A is for abhorrently A is for asshole, which is what I am, how rude of me, I owe you an apology I'm sorry (Chorus) Here we go A
