I Am Alone Songtext

von They Might Be Giants

Thank you for going back in time
And thwarting my assassin
And while we're laughing about it
I know you didn't really do that
This was a test, and you failed

Before you fire, I should inform you
One of us is a double
I took the trouble to swap ties
Somebody taps you on the shoulder
You don't know who is your friend

Let's all just take a deep breath and slowly
Lower our weapons to the floor

I am alone
In the three part folding mirror on the bathroom door
I am alone
In the three part folding mirror on the bathroom door

Everyone take off your disguises
I see you and your brother
Dressed as each other this time
So now it appears the double crossers
Have been too clever by half

The fox has been outfoxed again
The row of smug expressions all arrayed around are wiped away so

Let's just all take a deep breath and slowly
Lower our weapons to the floor

I am alone
In the three part folding mirror on the bathroom door
I am alone
In the three part folding mirror on the bathroom door
I'm by myself
In the three part folding mirror on the bathroom door
