Painting a picture of a piece of paper
Coz nothing's sacred but the daily fixture
Wait 'til it hits yer, just a little later
When the funny faces form pretty pictures
And I'm letting loose some funny feelings
That the ceiling's falling in around my shoes
And I'm getting used to funny feelings
Now the clouds that crown my head refuse to move
Tried to make something of nothing but nothing works out
Where I saw trust in your eyes before now I see doubt
And I can't figure out what I'm laughing about
No I can't figure out why I'm crying
Painting a picture of a piece of paper
When nothing's safer but getting richer
Wait 'til it hits yer - little piece of paper
With a subtle taste of some magic mixture
And I'm letting loose some funny feelings
That the ceiling's falling in around my shoes
And I'm getting used to funny feelings
Now the clouds that crown my head refuse to move
Tried to make something of nothing but nothing works out
Where I saw trust in your eyes before now I see doubt
Just coz I stayed up all night
Giving the goldfish a fright
Now you say something's not right
Now you know something's not right
Something's not right
Now you know something's not right
Painting a picture of a piece of paper
Get the undertaker for when it hits yer
Painting a picture of a piece of paper
Coz nothing's sacred but the daily fixture
Wait 'til it hits yer, just a little later
When the funny faces form pretty pictures
Painting a picture of a piece of paper
When nothing's safer but getting richer
Wait 'til it hits yer - little piece of paper
With a subtle taste of some magic mixture
