In The Corner Dunce

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a hole in my hat Shows a near miss grazing my scalp And my hand are the only injuries I'll stand if I can When I fall, forget me Will you respond if I float in? Yes, welcome me back with a marching band [Verse 2] There's a hole in the ozone So life's worth giving up and when I Do, now, won't you please forgive me It's not that I've lost 'Cause in a way, well, I've been winning [Pre-Chorus] Will you respond if I limp in? Welcome me back with a marching band [Chorus] There's part of you that can't help But to see right through this part of me And so when I go 'round round and I hit the town And when I can't be found, then you wait for sounds Well it's over you, yet under me And if it's the way it should be then I won't bother Your point of view is the point in me So when you hear a loud sound it means I'm back from town Now all this night is on my side [Post-Chorus] Ooh like a sitting duck, floating like a swan then flying like a dove Ooh, la, like a sitting duck Floating like a swan and it's all afterthought [Verse 3] There's a toll at the bridge If I pay I'm giving in And if I don't then I could always swim it With wings I could fly and avoid the risk of sinking Will you respond if I float in? By now I've forgotten how to use my fins [Chorus] There's a part of you that can't help But to see right through this part of me And so when I go around round and I hit the town And when I can't be found, found then you wait for sounds Well it's over you, yet under me And if it's the way it should be then I won't bother Your point of view is the point of me died And when you hear a loud sound that means I'm back from town now [Outro] I rarely get to feel, you know, I hardly ever feel in place Like a sitting duck, floating like a swan then flying like a dove Ooh, la la, it's my faulty love In the corner like a dunce it's all self-conscious thought
