Lyrics

Dud

[Verse]

I'm a dud

I've blown the lot on bookends

I'm knee-deep in mud and I'm

Sinking in to the weekend

How odd

Merely living and loving at a loose end

Turned me to a fraud and I'm

Sinking in to the weekend

[Chorus]

And I can't begin to explain

Just what you were to my mind

I'm staring into a frame

A factory-made painting of a wave

Crash on my bed

[Verse]

I'm a dog

Not been taken for a walk in ages

I'm a real-life tiger

Torn between two cages

My God

Don't let me go on for pages

I know where I'm flawed

High and dry behind the hydrangeas

[Chorus]

And I can't begin to explain

Just how you laid waste to my mind

I'm staring into a frame

A gift from my kin

Something Hungarian

[Outro]

Goulash and brеad

Crash on my bed

No need to go home yet

Crash on my bеd

Let's get shipwrecked
