Yeah! Oh, Yeah! Lyrics

[Claudia Gonson]
Are you out of love with me?
Are you longing to be free?
Do I drive you up a tree?

[Stephin Merritt]
Yeah! Oh, yeah!

[Claudia Gonson]
Do I drive you up the wall?
Do you dread every phone call?
Can you not stand me at all?

[Stephin Merritt]
Yeah! Oh, yeah!


[Claudia Gonson]
Though I need you more than air
Is it true you just don't care?
Are you having an affair?

[Stephin Merritt]
Yeah! Oh, yeah!
When we met I thought money was everything
So I let you buy the house, the cars, the ring
But I can't take your perpetual whining
And you can't sing
[Stephin Merritt & Claudia Gonson, in a mocking tone]
Aa aa aa aa aa aa aa
Aa aa aa aa aa aa aa
Aa aa aa aa aa aa aa

[Stephin Merritt]
Yeah! Oh, yeah!

[Claudia Gonson]
I thought if we lived apart
We could make a brand-new start
Do you want to break my heart?

[Stephin Merritt]
Yeah! Oh, yeah!
I've enjoyed making you miserable for years
Found peace of mind in playing on your fears
How I loved to catch your gold and silver tears
But now my dear

[Claudia Gonson]
What a dark and dreary life
Are you reaching for a knife?
Could you really kill your wife?

[Stephin Merritt]
Yeah! Oh, yeah!
[Claudia Gonson]
Oh, I die, I die, I die!
So it's over, you and I
Was my whole life just a lie?

[Stephin Merritt]
Yeah! Oh, yeah!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
