She's so passive but she's looking good
He's so passive but he's looking good
They are together but really they're apart
They are together but do not belong
But do not belong Yes, ladies and gentlemen
Let's fall asleep to a plastic lullaby
The ballad of Katie and Johnny
The ballad of Adam and Naomi
The ballad of Michael and Helena
The ballad is forever changing She's so passive but happy in her way
He's so passive but happy in his way
They do not think but sit and they pretend
They sit around and pray for it to end
Pray for it to end Yes, ladies and gentlemen
Let's fall asleep to a plastic lullaby
The ballad of Katie and Johnny
The ballad of Adam and Naomi
The ballad of Hugh and Elizabeth
The ballad is forever changing I'm so passive, hopeless fucking mess
We're so passive do our bit for charity
From Bosnia to London, we do it all for free
We do it all for free
