The screeching sound of your voice
puts my ears to a test, you know, uh -huh
Oh yes, I've paid my fingers crossed
I heard you say that line
a million times to my face,
You're meaningless, I'm shallow,
once you give it a rest, you know
So if like me you're alone tonight
I'm real hot, pickin' up the phone
Artificial tears, artificial tears
Artificial tears, they just drip, drip, drip
Artificial eyes, artificial eyes
Just drip, drip, drip from your eyes
Drip, drip from your eyes
I won't suck up to nobody
I'm a sucker, moody, wake -up call
You're everybody's darling,
see how long you can last
I'll strictly answer to myself,
although I know I'm a mess
So if like me you're all alone tonight
And feel like picking up the phone
drip from your artificial eyes
Oh those artificial tears
They just drip, drip, drip from your eyes
Drip, drip, drip from your eyes
Drip, drip, drip from your eyes
Looks like me in your love tonight
Looks like make -up's empty, or two
I like your smile too, not like you
Artificial tears, artificial tears,
Artificial tears, artificial tears
Artificial tears, they just drip, drip,
drip from your artificial eyes
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm gone
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm gone
