Creeping 'round my house at dawn,

I'll keep my curtains closed.

If you're feeling fond of feeling wronged,

Fully clothed.



For a second time you're on my mind,

Planted on this still.

You forget I do not pay in kind,

Kind's not there.



For the eyes to see through

All that I do.



For instance, I don't have to try.

I'm falling over all the right lines.

We only have to leave this last,

Resist all falling at the wrong times.



Safe in knowledge, safe in college,

I know all there is to know.

To have never stepped outside this ring,

Fools they flow.

For the self-assured I have no cure,

I only wish I was.

As my entertaining thoughts grow fewer,

Stills my cause.



For the eyes to see through

All that I do.



For instance, I don't have to try,

I'm falling over all the right lines.

We only have to leave this last,

Resist all falling at the wrong times.



For the accent, for the day, (don't walk just swim)

For the incidents they'll happen and they'll happen anyway, (it's gonna pass)

When you leave here, leave this way (one last request)

You are far enough to be impressed,

But not so far to be depressed.

Drink your souvenirs and go your way.



For instance, I don't have to try,

I'm falling over all the right lines.

We only have to leave this last,

Resist all falling at the wrong times.

For instance, I don't have to try,

I'm falling over all the right lines.

We only have to leave this last,

Resist all falling at the wrong times.
