A Lyrics by Barenaked Ladies

A

Words & music by steven page

A is for angry, which is what you are at me
A is for adult, which is what Ill never be
A is for applesauce, my favorite meal
A is for adam, which is how I sometimes feel;
Like Im the only man on earth, and Ive forgotten what thats worth
A is for arthur, hes a lovable drunk
A m & azing, like thelonius monk
A is for argument, a is for apparent
A is for antagonism thats not even there and
Its just you begging for attention or something I wont even mention

[chorus]
And I dont even know why you keep on trying
Like I dont even know why I keep on lying
There are millions of people in worlds of their own
And two of them cant let go

A is for algebra, I learned it in school
A is what fonzie said, cause he was very cool
A is for adversary, a is for affection
A is arousal, you are giving me an erection
Cmon Im trying to show affection for longer than a half an hour

Chorus

I met a woman I used to know
Long before you, long ago
All I could say, after hello
Was are you still single? 
A is for attitude I cant help but wield
A is for arrogance; emotional shield
A is for acting, a is for abhorrently
A is for asshole, which is what I am, how rude of me.
I owe you an apology Im sorry

Chorus
