Lyrics

Humdrum

[Verse 1] I learnt the letters by rote Regurgitated the lines Still then I went and misspoke But I am not that sort of guy I haven't felt this small since 2003 [Verse 2] I knew my chances were cooked I blame that loose trap of mine And when I went and had a look It was truly divine [Pre-Chorus] I've never seen somebody get so much for free [Chorus] I'm humdrum, I'm dumbstruck I'm tongue-tied, when nobody else gets stuck I'm not sad, I'm bunged up Not down bad like everyone else says What I want is dumb luck I'm envious 'bout everyone else's lot I'm not sad, I'm bloodshot I'm not mad, just stuck in a rut, humdrum [Verse 3] Upon my letters I choked Right down the telephone line It's probably best left unspoken 'Cause it would've just been unkind I haven't felt this way since exactly as it seems [Chorus] I'm humdrum, I'm dumbstruck I'm tongue-tied, when nobody else gets stuck I'm not sad, I'm bunged up Not down bad like everyone else says What I want is dumb luck I'm envious 'bout everyone else's lot I'm not sad, I'm bloodshot I'm not mad, just stuck in a rut, humdrum [Bridge] Simmer down And shut the fuck up It's all so insignificant Sink right down [Chorus] I'm humdrum, I'm dumbstruck I'm tongue-tied, when nobody else gets stuck I'm not sad, I'm bunged up Not down bad like everyone else says What I want is dumb luck I'm envious 'bout everyone else's lot I'm not sad, I'm bloodshot I'm not mad, just stuck in a rut, humdrum
