You cut the sandwich in half,
without asking if I wanted half a sandwich.
You broke frozen bread in half on your knee
and stuffed it full of shoplifted cheese.
You made me feel smart and clever
though I know I am anyway.
A well-meaning charlatan is still a charlatan, they say,
yeah a well-meaning charlatan is still a charlatan.
You poured me a cup of tea
and read such good books to me.
We stayed awake til dawn
yeah I fell asleep at dawn.
The next week you were kissing that other girl
and wouldn't hang out with me.
A well-meaning charlatan is still a charlatan, you see,
yeah a well-meaning charlatan is still a charlatan,
and and adorable liar is still a liar
and Aladdin is still a thief.
And Robin Hood had STDs and every actor plays a part.
When will I learn not to sell half my heart for half a sandwich?
