I’m looking round madly
C                        Em
for something to find
C7
that will give me a front
Am
to put something...
         Dm    Dm,7
something behind
Dmaj       G - C - G

I’m bouncing this ball
up and down the hall
but its full of best wishes
and suffocating fishes
and all

CH so lets drink some wine
and have a good time
and if you really want to come through
you’ll let the good times..
good times have you
(its what you’ve got to do)

you said it was foolish
for me to be sad
but i’m very hungry
and you..
you’re very well fed
(you’re such a fat lady)

and i’m talking to you
just for something to do
cause i’d much rather kiss you
but I know
i’m going to miss you again...
and again
(I know I’m going to miss you)

CH

I sing to the island
that sings in your head
cause i know you’d much rather
be there...
be there instead
(i know you’d much rather be there)

And you won’t find the answer
even where the wind blows
‘cause the answer my friend
is in front...
right there in front of your nose
(everybody knows, its their nose)
