Rainbirds - One Sad Boy lyrics

He is one sad boy But he would'nt shed a tear He is one sad boy With a conviction He is one sad boy Which is obvious to me For he claims to be happy With a vengeance And from all the girls in his world He had to love the one That pokes him in the eye Whenever his liveliness is souldeep And his smile comes from within And starts caressing her distressing boring self With an idea He's one sad boy Busy proving differently As he claims to be happy With a vengeance He is swimming in her pool of self-conceit Swimming round in circles While the water's getting turbid Swimming round in circles When she's gone He is one sad boy Though he never sheds a tear He is one sad boy With a conviction He is one sad boy Which is obvious to me For he claims to be happy With a vengeance And from all the souls in his world he tries To win the heart of those who just Could'nt give a damn Unless pretending to Would come in handy When times are rough and roads are sandy For jealousy is their Driving motion He is swimming in their pool of self-conceit Swimming round in circles While the water's getting turbid Swimming round in circles When they 're gone
