There's a hole in my hat
Shows a near miss grazing my scalp
And my hand are the only injuries
I'll stand if I can
When I fall, forget me

Will you respond if I float in?
Yes, welcome me back with a marching band

There's a hole in the ozone
So life's worth giving up and when I do now
Won't you please forgive me

It's not that I've lost
'Cause in a way, well, I've been winning

Will you respond if I limp in?
Welcome me back with a marching band

There's part of you that can't help
But to see right through this part of me
And so when I go around round and I hit the town
And when I can't be found, then you wait for sounds

Well it's over you, you're under me,
And if it's the way it should be then I won't bother
Your point of view is the point in me
So when you hear a loud sound it means I'm back from town
Now all this night is on my side
Ooh like a sitting duck, floating like a swan then flying like a dove
Ooh, la, like a sitting duck
Floating like a swan and it's all afterthought
There's a toll at the bridge
If I pay I'm giving in
And if I don't then I could always swim it
With wings I could fly and avoid the risk of sinking
Will you respond if I float in?
By now I've forgotten how to use my fins
There's a part of you that can't help
But to see right through this part of me
And so when I go around round and I hit the town
And when I can't be found found then you wait for sounds
Well it's over you, you're under me,
And if it's the way it should be then I won't bother
Your point of view is the point of me died
And when you hear a loud sound that means I'm back from town now
I rarely get to feel, you know, I hardly ever feel in place
Like a sitting duck, floating like a swan then flying like a dove
Ooh, la la, it's my faulty love
In the corner like a dunce it's all self conscious thought
