| Sweet. |
| Yeah, okay, I do like that one though, yeah, good call
|
| We’ll come back to that
|
| Yeah. |
| Okay. |
| Okay
|
| Been giving this some thought
|
| And it’s not sitting right
|
| Years behind me, 29
|
| A quite eventful life
|
| Right place, shiny suits
|
| A false sense of importance
|
| An overwhelming praise, mate
|
| I fill my boots
|
| Left me feeling only confused and lonely
|
| Why’s this person crying if I feel so phoney?
|
| Why do I feel like I’ve been sold a lie?
|
| Made to wear a golden tie
|
| Smiles on the outside, but internally I fold and cry
|
| Tom, why you got two swollen eyes?
|
| Desperate not to be stuck
|
| Well, please stop calling me a chicken when I’m clearly a duck!
|
| Quack, quack!
|
| Yes, I know my life has been a fortunate one
|
| Still, I’m fragile like a porcelain gun
|
| Pointless, like torching the sun
|
| Boom, bang, goes the porcelain gun
|
| Yes, I know my life has been a fortunate one
|
| Still, I’m fragile like a porcelain gun
|
| Pointless, like torching the sun
|
| Boom, bang, goes the…
|
| And we’re just maniacs
|
| Don’t you think it’s crazy that we don’t ask about your heart size?
|
| We ask, «How'd you pay for that?»
|
| I find it funny
|
| We ask what you do
|
| As if I care how you earned your money
|
| I want to know how you live your life
|
| Dogs, beer, travel, Netflix
|
| Anything but your 9 to 5
|
| Seriously, tell me that you love your family
|
| Shakespeare, Spielberg, anyone!
|
| You tell me that you need to check your Instagram
|
| Then I’ve got to run…
|
| Yes, I know my life has been a fortunate one
|
| Still, I feel fragile like a porcelain gun
|
| Pointless, like torching the sun
|
| Boom, bang, goes the porcelain gun
|
| Yes, I know my life has been a fortunate one
|
| Still, fragile like a porcelain gun
|
| Pointless, like torching the sun
|
| Boom, bang, goes the-, boom, bang, goes the
|
| Now, I’m not one to bitch and moan, my friend, that’s not my style
|
| But these feelings have been featuring for quite a while
|
| The best way to get that stress off my chest
|
| Is to put the thoughts on pages
|
| I thought a song was best
|
| I know I’m blessed, mate
|
| Everyday I freestyle with gratitude
|
| But sometimes I’m snappy
|
| Later thinking, 'mate; |
| that was rude'
|
| It’s been a while, 29 years to say the least
|
| And 9 times out of 10
|
| I’ve found the Beauty; |
| not the Beast
|
| I found love with a girl that I was working with
|
| Queen of Queens, mate
|
| Quite the perfect fit
|
| Just one of them kind of girls
|
| So sweet, to eat, like a diamond pearls
|
| Yes, I know my life has been a fortunate one
|
| Still, I’m fragile like a porcelain gun
|
| Pointless, like torching the sun
|
| Boom, bang, goes the porcelain gun
|
| Yes, I know my life has been a fortunate one
|
| Still, I feel fragile like a porcelain gun
|
| Spoke to your Mum, all goodly done
|
| This conversation’s been a torturous one, now… |
