Verse

small talk is rearing it’s head now

we’re talking weather, yeah it’s so damn wet today

and suddenly i think - oh my god

i’m finally fuckin’ doin’ it

i’m not even thinking why


in terrifying slow motion

that prolongs itself into hours

the conversation’s dead and i can’t recover, why?

did i meta-analyse the small-talkin’ fry

Interlude


Verse


Chorus (2x)

laa laa laa laa lal lal laa

she's a fool in sheep's clothing

biding for more time

laa laa laa laa lal lal laa

the clock is ticking down

and you still don't got a thought

Bridge (2x)

thank god we're not her

don't think about it


Post-Bridge (2x)

got nothing to say and i don't care anyway,

what now? did your niece graduate?

i'll pack up my things and i'll go somewhere far,

somewhere safe where the sun keeps shining on


Chorus (1x normal, 2nd time ending variation)

laa laa laa laa lal lal laa

she's a fool in sheep's clothing

biding for more time

laa laa laa laa lal lal laa

and you’ve got no thoughts
