Get Smart from The Zags by The Zags

She won't be people's amusement, no.
She's so determined to find have she wants
And she's not done. She'll make her own fun
Don't you dare make her bored

I didn't know we had problems, see
I thought her silence just sang of contentment
I was so wrong. She held back for so long
Had some surprises for me

Turns out I'm not the sun that lights my baby's world
Just a moon held tight in her orbit that she'd let go
To drift into space

She's started putting her records on
And no more cheerfully tagging along with me
Every night just to be polite
Oh yeah, her patience is gone

Turns out I'm not the flame that heats my baby's heart
Just a flickering bulb that she could
Just unscrew. Replace with something new
Yeah, I'd better get smart

She had, she had, she had enough of being adored
She knew, she knew, she knew she wanted something more
She gave, she gave, she gave me one last chance to please
I'll try, I'll try to change, but I know I
Can't give her everything she needs
