Dustin Hoffman Offers Lame Possible Explanation for Missing Bathtub Lyrics

Standing behind the counter
Making all kinds of mistakes
Woody Allen couldn't have made a funnier film than you
Standing there pushing, pushing
Winter off of autumn
Sweeping sunlight off the sidewalk
On the pavement in the park

Hiding behind my scarf
I'm making rude comments to myself
Playing that I'm Mr. Invisible
Nobody sees me
Leaning there saying, saying
I'm just another voice in an ocean of voices
Thankful

Happy mood swings softly
While you put in a half-day's work
I'm just waking up and shaking
The sleep out of my hair
Leaning there saying, saying
I don't want to take the time
To work things out, I'm so lazy
Thankful

I always thought it was "in an ocean of voices of foam"

I'm not sure if it's "thankful", but I'm almost completely sure it's not "of foam"... It doesn't really sound like that.

@LeSerpentMascara and considering kevin says it again at the end of the third verse, i'm inclined to think that it is "thankful"
