Average Mammals - Non-Fiction lyrics

I was born with a song on the tip of my tongue I grew up every weekend chasing love Well, I tried my hand at the grip of the pen I searched for more and more attention Some sort of recognition Well, I've got the curse of a nonfiction shelf I just can't seem to help my self I can't lie, you'd see right through my disguise So, why would I even try? I am a wooden boy Well, time ticked on I was drawn by the sound of the chord Chased it as long and as far as I could afford Well, I've had my share of failed interests But this one seems to be permanent Something that could never be worn Well, I've got the curse of the nonfiction shelf I just can't seem to help my self I can't lie, you'd see right through my disguise So, why would I even try? I am a wooden boy Well, I've got the curse of the nonfiction shelf I just can't seem to help my self I can't, lie you'd see right through my disguise So, why would i even try? I am a wooden I am x4 Well, I've got the curse of the nonfiction shelf I just can't seem to help my self I can't lie you'd see right through my disguise So, why would i even try? I am a wooden boy X2 I will die with a song on the tip of my tongue Leave behind and ? lived it to be sung Well, until then I'll just keep writing until the ink dries up and out of this pen Then I lose all recollection
