Thisness Lyrics
If I steal your knives and forks, will you arrest me?
Walk with a swinging stride, will you assess me?
I forget your name for now, will you address me?
I’m as harmless as a fly, but will you bless me?
Big cars and loud guitars do not impress me
Books and clocks and ancient rocks obsess me
Odd bye-laws and cricket scores possess me
I must have eaten something quite odd in my ancestry!
My slow to adapt to change does it concern you?
The patch-work of my mind, it must amuse you
The patch-work of my mind it must amuse you
Well what’s the last of a dying breed supposed to do?
A hair brained scheme that might just work
Bet on a dead cert and lose your shirt
Invent another clockwork oddity
I’m out of sight and out of my mind
A nation laughs at what’s left behind
I just wanted to leave my mark on history!
Walk with a swinging stride, will you assess me?
I forget your name for now, will you address me?
I’m as harmless as a fly, but will you bless me?
Books and clocks and ancient rocks obsess me
Odd bye-laws and cricket scores possess me
I must have eaten something quite odd in my ancestry!
The patch-work of my mind, it must amuse you
The patch-work of my mind it must amuse you
Well what’s the last of a dying breed supposed to do?
Bet on a dead cert and lose your shirt
Invent another clockwork oddity
I’m out of sight and out of my mind
A nation laughs at what’s left behind
I just wanted to leave my mark on history!
