You're poised and ready Unable to make a sound Your hands are sweaty As you look down You're running already When you hit the ground
You're willing and able So nice to have around The head of the table Is tightly wound The noise is loud So turn it down
When you think about it Try to wrap your head around it You find none of it Makes any sense at all And people you once trusted Are now looking so disgusted And they're waiting anxiously For you to fall
You take for granted And take what you can grab Fore say what's landed Into your lap You shake the hand And take a stab
And there's no need to doubt it There's never been Two ways about it It takes a thick skin There's ways around it But no way in
When you think about it Try to wrap your head around it You find none of it Makes any sense at all And people you once trusted Are now looking so disgusted And they're waiting anxiously For you to fall
And there you go Telling everybody you know Selling a one man show So take a look around you now And soak it up and take a bow
You're living and crawling And trying to catch a breath You're stalling and dying A sudden death And all the while You second guess
And now the time has come For it to stop The clown was done So call a cop You're like a boy In a china shop
You're poised and ready Unable to make a sound Your hands are sweaty As you look down You're running already When you hit the ground
