Dear Mr. Lando or Mrs. Sender
We're pleased to inform you that your application's been accepted
Starting from the time you get this letter
Your life will be one never-ending hope you're feeling better
You get your choice of aesthetic
We need to chop your clock off, tick-tok, tick-tok, tick-tok, tick-tok
It might not be what you expected, ooh hoh ohoh
There is no money back once you've been ripped off, ripped off, ripped off
Today is a very special day, oh
The buzz and metaphor, but what will the neighbors say?
It leaves you feeling pretty hollow
It might be nice to look at, don't forget you're stuck with it tomorrow
And tomorrow, and tomorrow, ay!
You're big enough to stop pretending
You'll start to really show it in a week or so
So don't go saying it's, just come to your attention, oh-oh-oh
You get more than you're asking for without the right protection
Today is a very special day
And how you'd love to have a little thing with which to play
But love won't get you very far, oh
Today, be still, your beating heart, you'll have to keep on feeding it tomorrow
And tomorrow, and tomorrow
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Boys will be boys, will be boys, will be boys, will be boys
Will be boys, will be girls with no warning
Girls will be girls, will be guys, will be boys that don't cry
Over toys that they use to be girls they despise by the morning
And make, always said that sex would change you
Change you, change you, change you
No second thoughts, the knife is nearing
You'll never hear the little pitter-patter, pitter-patter
Of this little beat of engineering, oh-oh-oh
Of course I love you, and of course it's what's inside that matters
But I think the whole charade is ending
It seems to me to be the only way to keep from getting
Caught up in a long life of regretting
That I just say that once you get a taste for it, you'll keep on cutting
But while we happen to be here, OH
Why don't you whisper all the sweet forevers in my ear?
Stiff upper lip and all this sorrow
Hurry up and stick it in, you never know when it will end tomorrow
Tomorrow, and tomorrow
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow
And make always said that sex would change you
Change you, change you, change you
