Jonathan Coulton - Big Bad World One lyrics

All alone by the table of food in my wrinkled suit and my borrowed tie Only thinking of something to say in the moment after the girl goes by Everyone else is having fun or else pretending to I eat another crudite I quit, I'm done Cause I don't think it's gonna turn out okay It's no fair, it's no fun If every time it's gonna end the same way: Me: zero, Big bad world: one At the office we're all having cake cause it's someone's birthday, I don't know who Get my plate and I'm scanning the room and the only seat is right next to you I get the nod, the tiny smile that doesn't come with teeth Maybe you don't know who I am I quit, I'm done Cause I don't think it's gonna turn out okay It's no fair, it's no fun If every time it's gonna end the same way: Me: zero, Big bad world: one Staying in side, lying in bed Noticing something that's not there Follow my heart, follow my head I'll follow anything that might get me somewhere Catch her eye when she's pouring my coffee and search my head for an opening line But I see by the look on her face if I keep my mouth shut I'll save some time What if the best that I can be just isn't good enough? Isn't it better not to know? I quit, I'm done Cause I don't think it's gonna turn out okay It's no fair, it's no fun If every time it's gonna end the same way: Me: zero, Big bad world: one
