After a fashion which is 
Purely the mood that takes me 
I'll set my mouth on fire 
And kiss you till you blister 
The tears I cry 
Out overhead 
Spell out a word 
All for you 

Watch the thin boy in dark clothes 
Falling over pianos 
Trips on the moving carpet 
Plays like he's deaf and dumb and blind 
The answer is 
Quite obvious 
Oblivious 
To all but you 

After a fashion 
She's the answer 
After a fashion 
I'm the question
