I break the silence with my voice and everyone turns around to see the source of all the noise and here I stand. Its not as thought I mean to upset you with the things I say and do. I should know better but I said so anyway.
Its easier to play a part and read your lines than freely speak what's in your heart and in your mind. Is it me? who says these things that so offend you? Innapropriate and loud I'd say I'm sorry but it's hard to speak with both feet in your mouth.
All hail the king of dunces You best hold on I'm opening up my mouth. Bring out the maypole and tie me up and shut me out. Devil knows what possessed me to shoot my arrow straight into the sky. String me to the mast and hoist me up and hang me high. I put no blame on you I brought this all upon myself. It's just this thing I do at times like this I wish I was someone else.
There's a lever inside head between my mouth and my brain keeps me from hearing what I've said until its too late, now it's too late. Smear my lips with vaseline because I'm a vocal libertine. I try to explain but even I'm not quite sure what I mean.
All hail the king of dunces You best hold on I'm opening up my mouth. Bring out the maypole and tie me up and shut me out. Devil knows what possessed me to shoot my arrow straight into the sky. String me to the mast and hoist me up and hang me high. I put no blame on you I brought this all upon myself. It's just this thing I do at times like this I wish I was someone else.
I don't know what to say I was only trying to make you smile and bring some needed levity to your world for a while. I never meant to make you cry but I did it all by myself its just this thing I do at times like this I wish I was someone else.
All hail the king of dunces You best hold on I'm opening up my mouth. Bring out the maypole and tie me up and shut me out. Devil knows what possessed me to shoot my arrow straight into the sky. String me to the mast and hoist me up and hang me high.
All hail the king of fools This boy's been bad let's keep him after school. send me to the blackboard and write a hundred times "I am the dunce". Devil knows what possessed me to shut my mind and open up my mouth. String me to the anchor and watch me drown in myself.
