lyrics

With one hand tied behind my back
I'm fighting a lost cause
and if I wasn't so young
I'd swear it's male menopause
aimless around town been mixing my metaphors
now I'm hatching a devious plot
to annoy the neighbours
That's the absurdity of it all
that's the stumble before the fall
that's the uncertainty in my head
oh I think I was born to be dead
An old man in a greasy spoon says
"Pass me the brown sauce"
and if I wasn't so friendly
he'd swear I'd been in the wars
aggravated burglary been busy violating laws
but now I'm learning my lesson
I attend remedials
Do up your shoe-lace paint your pretty face
you can't sum me up though mathematics is your strong point
