Walk Away Renee - Version

She said it was just a figment of speech
 And I said "You mean figure", And she said "No, figment"
 Because she could never imagine it happening. But it did
 When we first met I played the Shy boy
 When she spoke to me for the first time my nose began to bleed
 She guessed the rest
 The next day we went on a bus ride to the ferry
 And when nobody came to collect our fares
 Well I knew then this was something special
 I couldn't stop thinking about her
 And every time I switched on the radio
 There was somebody else singing a song about the two of us
 It was just like being on a fast ride at the fun fair
 The sort you want to get off because its scary
 And then as soon as you're off you want get straight back on again
 But all love is strange
 And you have to learn to take the crunchy with the smooth I suppose
 She began going out with Mr. Potato Head
 It was when I saw her in he car park
 With his coat around her shoulders that I realized
 I went home and thought about the two of them together
 Until the bathwater went cold around me
 I thought about her eyes and the curve of her breasts
 And about the point where their bodies met
 I confronted her about it
 I said, "I'm the most illegible bachelor in town, And she said "Yeah that's why I
 could never understand any of those silly letters you sent me"
 And then one day it happened
 She cut her hair and I stopped loving her
