Sellotape
[Brett's voice narrating]
Dear Jermaine, by the time you read this, I will be far, far away, at Coco's house, and I will no longer be residing--
And that is just one of the reasons why I'm moving out. You didn't seem to understand th--
And the most important thing for me to say is that--
Do you remember that time that seagull--
Yours sincerely, Brett.
[Jermaine]
Lives are like retractable pencils
If you push them too hard theyre gonna break
And people are like paper dolls
Paper dolls and people, theyre a similar shape
Hmm hmm hm hmm
[Brett]
Love is like a roll of tape
Its real good for making two things one
[Jermaine]
But just like the roll of tape
Love sometimes breaks off before you were done
[Brett]
Another way that love is similar to tape
That Ive noticed
Is sometimes its hard to see the end
[Together]
You search on the roll (search on the roll)
Search on the roll (searching round the roll)
Search on the roll (search)
[Together]
With your finger nail
Again and again
And again and again
[Jermaine]
And again...
[Brett]
Whoa, whoa

Brown paper, white paper
Stickin' together with the tape
The tape of love
The sticky stuff

[Jermaine]
No, just leave-- just leave her, not--
[Brett]
Oh no I'm not gonna leave her, I told you that. You know, I like the band, but no I'm not leaving Coco.
[Coco]
I wouldn't mind. I mean if that's what you really wa--
[Brett]
Shush, baby.
[Coco]

[Brett]

[Jermaine]
So what's it gonna be man? The girl or the band?
[Brett]
Well it's gonna be Coco.
[Jermaine]
Oh. Are you sure?
[Brett]
Yeah.
[Jermaine]
Oh I thought you... I was sure you were gonna say the band.
[Brett]
No I'm staying with Coco.
[Jermaine]

[Brett]
Okay.
[Jermaine]
Okay. Okay well I'll see you later. Actually I'm gonna wait til the bus stops, and then... get off.
