Look at me, I'm such a basket case Delivered to you wrapped in cellophane Waiting on your doorstep every day Delivery, a basket filled with pain
Patience is your virtue, saint o' mine I'd have fallen through the cracks without your love tonight I'm your groundhog and I'm skating on thin ice But you see me at your feet and carry me inside
[Chorus] Can't you see I'm wrapped in cellophane Watch the blood pump through my veins Electricity floods my brain Can't hide the pain, can't hide the pain When you're wrapped in cellophane
Look at me, I'm such a basket case While I fall apart you'll hide all my pills again And all the things I need to hear you say You'll watch as all my thoughts get right back on the train
[Chorus] Can't you see I'm wrapped in cellophane Watch the blood pump through my veins Electricity floods my brain Can't hide the pain, can't hide the pain When you're wrapped in cellophane
