Blow Up Lyrics

Friendlier than average

A little cleaner cut

Typical, that's what I was

No need to size me up

Stand all day outside myself

Part of my disease

You'd never tell, I dwell in hell

To look at dumb old me

I guess I've got a foot on both fences

Can't move and sure can't jump

I guess I've got a foot on both fences

All I can do is wait until I split

Split or just blow up

It's a corkscrew substitute

But it helps me purge and ease

The terrific pressure building up

Down deep inside of me

Play dumb with a gullible smile

A dull hayseed routine

I'm a foothill in a landscape scene

Simply Byzantine

I guess I've got a foot on both fences

Can't move and sure can't jump

I guess I've got a foot on both fences

All I can do is wait until I split

Split or just blow up

Can you get around the image

Of sweet and gentle me

You never think about getting round

Sweet and gentle me

You missed all the cues

The deliberate clues

Ticking time bombs

Defense disarmed

By a bit of snake-charming

It's always lightest just before the dark

It's always lightest just before the dark

I'm the movie you've seen a thousand times

But never see between the lines

We might have the same disease

Or, my friend, I might be

Cold-blooded and smart as hell

Or innocent and well

I guess I've got a foot on both fences

Can't move and sure can't jump

I guess I've got a foot on both fences

All I can do is wait until I split

Split or just blow up
