lyrics

Speak plainly, Diana
There’s nothing to understand
Yes there’s mysteries in the basement
But there’s comic books upstairs
And there’s a wrecking ball in the front yard
But there’s blueprints on the couch
Speak plainly to me, Diana
We’ll build ourselves a house

I don’t mind riding around
I don’t mind riding around

There’s no safety Diana
And there’s nobody to blame
Even daylight will surprise you
Even dreams will end the same
So when there’s too much to remember
And you remember me
Speak plainly to me, Diana
We’ll swim into the sea

I don’t mind riding around
I don’t mind riding around

Come lately, Diana
And quit what’s got you down
Steal from the tallest cabinet
And make your favorite sound
When there’s too much to get rid of
And you get rid of me
Speak plainly to me, Diana
There’s nothing you must be
