Para mim, este moço é dos mais geniais músicos da actualidade... A simplicidade das suas letras deixa-me parvo, aquilo que há primeira vista parece só uma música "light" e algo estúpida, acaba por conter grandes verdades. Ele não canta sobre os momentos profundos da vida, canta sobre tudo o resto, o que muitas vezes representa grande parte da nossa vida... É difícil não sorrir a ouvir as músicas deste gajo, porque grande parte do que canta já foi (ou é) a minha (ou vossa) realidade...
Esta música tem de fazer parte da discografia de qualquer moço, para quando nos faltar a coragem para confessar isto, apesar de muitas vezes não dar em nada, porque as moçoilas pensam sempre que nos vão conseguir mudar...
Um dia destes ponho aqui também a "bad cover version", que já devia ter sido mandada por muitos aos seus queridos "ex"...
I love your body 'cause I've lost my mind
If you want someone to share your life, you've been someone who is alive
And if every relationship is a two-way street, I have been screwing in the back whilst you drive
I never said I was deep, but I am profoundly shallow
My lack of knowledge is vast, my horizons are narrow
I never said I was big, I never said that I was clever
If you are waiting to find what's going on in my mind, you could be waiting forever
Forever and ever
I can't get you to the end of the night 'cause I'm afraid of the dark
I have to confess I'm out of my depth
You're going over my head and straight through my heart
Some girls play dirty, some girls want to be your mum
Me, I disrespected you whilst we were waiting for the taxi to come
My moral sense is shabby, my behaviour unacceptable
No, I'm not looking for a relationship-- just a willing receptacle
I never said I was
I never said I was
I never said I was
I never said I was deep, but I am profoundly shallow
My lack of knowledge is vast, my horizons are narrow
I never said I was big, I never said that I was clever
If you are waiting to find what's going on in my mind, you could be waiting forever
Forever and ever
I never said I was deep, but I am profoundly shallow
My lack of knowledge is vast, my horizons are narrow
I never said I was deep
