lyrics

there's a man on the edge of town.
unemployed & disavowed
blood pressure too high to count -
bored / bald & blanking out!

tinned soup in the microwave -
doesn't mind the minute wait.
doesn't go to bed too late.
(layin low & playing straight)

just a bucketful of barely there
spilling over the sides
there's nothing happening everywhere...
throw me over the sides!

his best friend is an alibi
anxious again (and he don't know why!)
a face fixed to the tv guide helps him feel
anaesthetised

beach house on the stereo
(somebody's sayin something)
neighbours keep it turned down low
(i wanna hear you saying something)
he's got no other place to go
(stop! sing me something!)
doesn't move him anymore... don't run.

just a bucketful of barely there
spilling over the sides
there's nothing happening everywhere...
throw me over the sides!

well - boy - don't you know?
you're unique. you're nothing different.
back to work! live your dreams!
expire silently.

just a bucketful of barely there
spilling over the sides
there's nothing happening everywhere...
throw me over the sides!
