Sitting on a Fence

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sitting on a fence is a man who sees no sense in fighting Sitting on a fence is a man who sees no sense at all Sitting on a fence is a man who strokes his twenty beards Sitting on a fence is a man who only drinks real ale [Pre-Chorus] But the real problem with this man Is he says he can't when he can He'd rather not get his hands dirty He'll still be there when he's thirty [Chorus] I told myself to keep my mouth shut But I still end up saying 'if' and 'but' I lied to myself right from the start And I've just worked out that I'm falling apart Sitting on a fence... [Verse 2] Sitting on a fence is a man who looks up to his guardian Sitting on a fence is a man who swings from poll to poll Sitting on a fence is a man who sees both sides of both sides Sitting on a fence is a man who looks down on opinion [Pre-Chorus] But the real problem with this man Is he says he can't when he can He'd rather not get his hands dirty He'll still be there when he's thirty [Chorus] I told myself to keep my mouth shut But I still end up saying 'if' and 'but' I lied to myself right from the start And I've just worked out that I'm falling apart Sitting on a fence... [Bridge] [Chorus] I told myself to keep my mouth shut But I still end up saying 'if' and 'but' I lied to myself right from the start And I've just worked out that I'm falling apart [Outro] I told myself, and I told myself And I just worked out that I'm falling apart I lied to myself, I lied to myself And I just worked out that I'm falling apart I told myself, and I told myself And I just worked out that I'm falling apart I lied to myself, I lied to myself And I just worked out that I'm falling apart
