Picture postcard honesty 
In the land of hopeless dreams 
That man in my sitting room 
Only lives behind the screen 

Oh, look at me happily 
In this third party situation 
A married man with a see through smile 
Who's not quite what he seems 

Oh, I'm having trouble with the language 
Having trouble getting through 
Haven't learned my lessons well 
So I don't know what to do 

Having trouble with the language 
Do you voulez-vous? 
Never catch a falling knife 
Oh, that's just my point of view 

Andre's such a sycophant 
Who always leaves the truth behind 
Always stands on the outside 
No matter how hard she tries 
It's been a while 
ready smile 
I've got to go 
Oh look at the time 
If only she knew 
What the restless do 
She would surely break down and cry 

Oh, I'm having trouble with the language 
Yeah, Having trouble getting through 
Haven't learned my lessons well 
So I don't know what to do 

Having trouble with the language 
Do voulez-vous? 
Never catch a falling knife 
Oh, that's just my point of view 

That's just my view 

In a storm electric 
The lightning struck his head, twice 
Now I'm a vegetarian 
Because the pig in the middle is dead 

Oh yeah 
Oh no 

Downtown at the funeral home 
There's a dark cloud over our heads 
She looked better in a black suit 
But he looked better... dead 

Oh, having trouble with the language 
With a knock, knock, knock 
Having trouble breaking through 
And a knock, knock, knock 
Yeah, no you don't know what to do 

Having trouble with the language 
Do you voulez-vous? 
Never catch a falling knife 
Oh, that's just my point of view 

Oh yeah 
Oh, is talking 'bout 
Having trouble with the language 
Do you voulez-vous? 
Never catch a falling knife 
Oh, that's just my point of view 

Having trouble with the language 
Having trouble getting through 
I still don't know 
I don't know what to do
