My
mind caught a train to a place called mundane
I got scared that something nice would fly by
I couldn't care less about consequence
I thought I'd sit on the fence on that one
Well I'm not getting young and feeling sorry for myself
I'm getting scared that something nice would fly by
I get scared that something nice will fly
by And I will miss a bit of my little light
Cause I'll have one eye on the TV and one eye on
the wife One eye on the TV and that kind of life
I'm getting scared that something nice will fly by
Oh,
I'm scared that something nice will fly by
I tried to weigh up the percentage of
description Imposed on me by this contradiction
Of lacking in love and living with someone Oh,
what is it that I haven't done?
I know the l-l-l-l-l-lust is endless And I know it's getting longer
I'm tired of walking the stairs to the office To
get the company to put their hands in their pockets
I get scared that something nice will fly
by And I will miss a bit of my blinkered eye
Cause I'll have one eye on the top floor and one ear on his words
One eye on the street and a half of the birds And
the perfumes and the bats and the shapes and the time
Perfumes and the bats and the shapes and the time
I'm worried something nice will fly by Oh,
I'm scared that something nice will fly by
And every time I'm ill I think I'm dying
Every time I'm sad I feel like crying
This is the state I've got myself in Gotta crack this age,
gotta get things moving
I love that one,
I love that other I love my family,
my sisters and brothers
I wish the world could get along And that everyone would take this on
Cause I get scared that something nice will fly by
And I will miss it at the corner of my eye Cause
I'd have one eye on something and one eye on another
One eye on my parents and my father and mother I've
got one eye on the street and the kids I dee-dis
What will I tell them in a few years?
I'm scared that something nice will fly by Oh,
I'm scared that something nice will fly by
