Born Ruffians - Barnacle Goose lyrics

& I'm frustrated with myself But I can't change I don't want to be me anymore & All of the tics & tocs & clicks of clocks That tell the time tell me this is just a phase & Everything every day That's been scraping away At the side of my brain Can't come to form a thought except... & All the thoughts I think I've saved Here for days that remain Just keep eating away & I still can't sleep sing... Why can't you tell me what I wanna hear To help me get some rest Oh my darling dear? The songs of the birds Don't bring calmness no more Oh no, no they don't sing & None of the girls seem to think you're cool It's probably because you smell bad A skin disease won't get you Nowhere these days It's true, it's sad but true & Everything every day That's been scraping away At the side of my brain Can't come to form a thought except... & All of the thoughts I think I've saved Here for days that remain Just keep eating away & I still can't sleep I sing... We're going to make plans We have plans to make plans We're going to do it right We've locked it in our sights I'll la-dee-da & they can dum-dee-day We'll tra-la-la all night and day we'll go far & If I write enough & think about it it'll happen It's not as tough as mom said As it so happens Your an*lyst lied to you when She told you the truth About boys, fear, open sores & Things that are simple Like opening doors & All the thoughts I think I've saved here For days that remain Just eat eat eat away & I still can't sleep/sing
