"Clumsy" lyrics
1997 Sony Music Canada
1. Superman's Dead Will you worry that you're not liked? How long 'til you break? You're happy cause you smile But how long can you fake? An ordinary boy with an ordinary name But ordinary's just not good enough today Chorus: Ow aoooooooo.. Alone... I'm thinking why.... (yeah) Superman's Dead (yeah) Is it in my head? (yeah) Just laugh instead You worry about the weather And whether or not you should hate Are you're worried about your faith Kneel down and obey You're happy you're in love You need someone to hate An ordinary girl with an ordinary waist But ordinary is just not good enough today (Chorus) Why..... Doesn't anybody ever know... that the world is a subway?top of page
2. Automatic Flowers And Sara thinks She's died here once before She's crazy A pop-up book of flowers from grade 4 Are driving her insane And no-one knows why She's sad tonight No-one can help her find Chorus: Crying, she couldn't afford the view Crying, these automatic flowers won't do Another brick Another window frames confusion Her garden blooms but Sara can't see straight She's drinking herself blind And no-one knows why She's stands outside No-one can help her find (Chorus) She never admit it She never could considered That she always needs better She's wasting all the time (Chorus)

3. Carnival You know you're not a strong man And you're just about to cry Hang on it's all right You worry about the future The sign said: "Yoga class for cats" It's okay, it's okay It's no fun Chorus: You're frustrated by the cracks In the pavement And every mother's back... Once again The carnival closed down But if this world would ever turn around And the dynamite is waiting Cause they bankrupted the sky It's okay, it's okay It's no fun (Chorus) Break your mother's back If you step on the cracks As everybody says (Chorus) You'll be there And everyone is sane You'll be there
4. Big Dumb Rocket I've never seen your breath before But I'm disgusted by the thought of Waiting anymore If I look into your eyes Will you notice me or notice it or Fade into this accident Chorus: And I don't want to find The big dumb rocket on your mind And I don't want to find That it's mostly you and mostly me And a tired gun that's not empty I've never been this sad before But I'm offended by my fingertips And what they've done And If I look into your eyes Well if it must be true you must believe I've never held such violent things (Chorus) I've never talked to God before tonight But I'm disgusted by... (Chorus)
5. 4am I walked around my good intentions And found that there were none I blame my father for the wasted years We hardly talked I never thought I would forget this hate Then a phone call made me realize I'm wrong Chorus: And If I don't make it known that I've loved you all along Just like the sunny days that We ignore because We're all dumb and jaded And I hope to God I figure out What's wrong I walked around my room Not thinking Just sinking in this box I blame myself for being too much Like somebody else I never thought I would just Bend this way Then a phone call made me realize I'm wrong (Chorus)
6. Shaking So you fucked this up again It's time for you to leave You never had many friends And you thought this was all right You're rushing to meditate You should eat but probably wait You never thought of yourself Chorus: Why are you shaking Why are you right When I will be the only one who gives And lets you in tonight Walk you could never walk away From this speedfreak collagen Caffinated place You were always reaching in Looking for somewhere to go And nobody needs to find out And nobody needs to know what you know (Chorus) So you wonder about the past When you know that its already been Nothing seems to last Can it last will it last, can it last (Chorus) Who lets you in...
7. Clumsy Throw away the radio suitcase That keeps you awake Hide the telephone in case You realize that sometimes you're not okay You level off but its not all right now You need to understand There's nothing strange about this You need to know your friends You need to know that Chorus: I'll be waving my hand watching you drown Watching you scream quiet or loud And maybe you should sleep And maybe you just need a friend As clumsy as you've been There's no one laughing You will be safe in here Throw away this very old shoelace That tripped you again Try and shrug it off It's only skin now You need to understand There's nothing fake about this You need to let me in I'm watching you (Chorus)top of page
8. Hello Oskar Over there well he's wondering Is Oskar there is, Oskar all right Was never cool not allowed to fit He never knew what he liked Over there he's the rubberman A rubber dress with Betty Page eyes Was never cool he'll never settle down He's not allowed to drive He'll build a bridge then walk around Don't ever call him dumb He's not that bright He's not himself Chorus: I will take you somewhere Somewhere to unwind You're tangled up in all this shit I will make you mine There's nothing wrong He's a superstar A taximan and a young Einstein Was never cool he'll never settle down He's not allowed to drive He'll build a bridge then walk around Leave that boy alone He's not that bright He's not all tight He's not himself (Chorus) I will do... (Chorus)
9. Let You Down Hey what do you see Its not me not me Why won't you share It's not fair There's a bicycle show Where the bicycle's float And I wouldn't of cared Chorus: And I won't be the one who bothers you And I won't be the one who lets you down Now that you're there You're not scared Why would you care It's your dream Not theirs There's a cigarette thief Stealing cigarette dizzies And I wish I was there (Chorus)
10. Story of 100 Ailes Help yourself If you know why you came Cause if you need help she says... There's something I've got saved This is not what you wanted These candy coated fakes This is not what you wanted This is pain Chorus: Anacin, we're stumbling again And it's the story of a hundred aisles Walk away from simple on a tray Cause if you need help she says These fancy pills don't rate This is not what you wanted A miracle today This is not what you wanted This is pain (Chorus) Time is not for sale today And time seems so far away And time is not for sale today You need more than this Depressed come here try this (Chorus)
11. Car Crash Tired and jaded This road is unsafe Have you been there But time is on your side You're too stubborn to wait Are you listening They want you to know They want you to stay Oh its too much to take So you're running away Chorus: But oh... It's more than I can bear Car crash Ending your day At the side of the road Are you trembling They'll wake up today To the papers that say Oh well, it was too hard to tell He was swerving they were swerving Much too late (Chorus)
