[Intro: Steve Lacy]
I think I take myself too serious
It's not that serious

[Verse 1]
Alone in someone's bedroom, she firmly took my hand
The isolation ended, I began to understand
In the ping-pong match of constant desire
I was never gonna get ahead
'Cause I was looking in the mirror

[Chorus]
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go

[Verse 2]
Judeo-Christianity, I'd never heard the words
Enemies for centuries, until there was a third
In the ping-pong match of constant desire
I was never gonna get ahead
'Cause I was looking in the mirror

[Chorus]
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
[Verse 3]
Diego Garcia, surrounded by the waves
Lonely in the ocean, but in every other way
It was full of love
In the warmest fellow-feeling

[Chorus]
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go

[Verse 4]
I didn't have your sympathy, but I knew where to start
Explaining to you patiently that the one who broke my heart
Would have broken yours
And thrown the pieces in the river

[Chorus]
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go

[Bridge]
Sympa—
Sympa—
Let's go
Sympa—
Let's go
Sympa—
Let's go
Sympa—
[Verse 5]
Desperate for an enemy, but too afraid to kill
Use the pain of someone else and triumph for their will
And spill the blood
Of the arrogant mosquitoes

[Chorus]
Now we've got that sympathy
What I'm to you, you are to me
Let's go
