Lyric She Never Told Me She Was A Mime

(Al Yankovic)
When we first met she seemed perfectly normal
I never dreamed she d make my life so hard
You see, my baby, she started to change
Started lookin kinda strange
Wearin all that white makeup and those black leotards
Well, I guess she kept her little secret pretty well
Now ever since I learned the horrible truth
You know my life has been a living hell
That s right, you see...
She never told me she was a mime
She never told me she was a mime, oh no
Actin like she s trapped inside a big glass box all the time
She never told me, she never told me she was a...
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mime
I wish we both could just talk it all over
But my baby won t even make a sound
Now she makes everybody sick
Doin that pantomime shtick
Even our old friends have stopped coming around
Well, my parents can t stand her and the neighbors hate her guts
She s really, really embarassing me...this silent treatment s driving me nuts
You see...
She never told me she was a mime
She never told me she was a mime, oh no
Now she s actin like she s trapped inside a big glass box all the time
What a crime
She never told me (she never told me) she never told me she was a mime
She walks against the wind everywhere we go
Stops at every corner, gotta put on a show
Carries round a picture of Marcel Marceau
Always was the quiet type, but how was I to know?
She never told me she was a mime
She never told me she was a mime, oh no
Actin like she s trapped inside a big glass box all the ti-yi-yi-yi-yi-ime
She never told me, she never told me she was a mime
