|
All around the alphabet |
|
To hide a sadder tale of someone sad at |
|
Circling the Circumference |
|
Show me the way from the periphery |
|
But everybody is wrapped |
|
In a warm embrace |
|
With their arms around the answers |
|
While I'm wrapped up |
|
In my own rigamarole cause |
|
CHORUS |
|
I can't have that in my life |
|
But soon I'll find |
|
I won't have that in my life |
|
Right or righteous? - I can't say |
|
Another day, another dilemma |
|
Don't have the time, thirst, wish, itch |
|
or urge to fit |
|
Or that's my story and I am |
|
Stuck with it! |
|
You're deep in conversation |
|
Where you really swim |
|
And in the shallow water |
|
I'm the first one in |
|
A straight-forward answer |
|
Is out of the question |
|
Why her whole body joins in |
|
In the way she smiles but |
|
It's all too much of a muchness for me |
|
I'm the man who missed a sitter |
|
The pearly-gate crasher |
|
The king's new clothes hanger |
|
Sceptical sucker |
|
Straight man gone solo |
|
- drunk or canned laughter |
|
I'm sorry - |
|
What was the question again? |
