HE DOESN’T KNOW THE WORDS TO SONGS.
He ain’t all that bad looking when he gives a damn
He could be described as an average man
Some would say he drifts along
It’s far more than less he gets it wrong.
He wears the spectacles on his sleeve
I guess this girl seems a bit nieve
He knows the score and he’s at a loss
Fumbling around in a penitent pause.
He doesn’t know the words to songs
He don’t know where he belongs
He don’t know the words to songs.
Trapped inside his fears and doubt
He don’t know what life is about.
He’s turned the corner he’s forty-three
He looks at what he’ll never be.
He wants to dance and he wants to sing
He wants a little part of everything
His life has led him up a cul de sac
It’s now he knows there’s no way back.
He drifted in and out of dreams
It’s far too late questioning what life means
Some would say he drifts along
It’s far more than less he gets it wrong.
