He was not the boy you thought him Now you are dying of boredom All in an afternoon I throw My temper around the room She was not the girl I thought her She could drive a man to murder All in an afternoon I throw My temper 'round the room My temper 'round the room My temper 'round the room Now I can't see the sky at all I'm lying here I should be standing tall But oh you look straight through and through 'til I I don't know what to do And the way you're keeping silent Makes me think that I should be more quiet All in an afternoon I throw my My temper 'round the room My temper 'round the room My temper 'round the room But as the evening falls and you find a moment's pause What a silly boy you have been As if she could care She was never even here She just wanted you to disappear And you threw your temper 'round the room (Threw my) temper 'round the room (Threw my) temper 'round the room (Threw my) my temper around the room She was not the girl I thought her And she could drive this man to murder All in an afternoon I throw my Temper 'round the room My temper around the room My temper around the room All in an afternoon
