I get scared when I'm performing
If I'm outnumbered,
I need some warming up
Dear folks, should I pull
out some jokes
They'd better be quite funny
You paid your money outside
Every lyric that I've ever written
Just left my brain
And now the words are
sitting off in the wing
And you're wondering,
can't this guy sing?
You like the band performing much more
Ignore me, I'll hide
Cause I'm too scared to
sing this song all alone
I'm too scared to sing
too straight or too stone
I'm too scared to reach the end of this rhyme,
whoa, I'm
Too scared to sing, too scared to sing,
too scared to sing
I threw up before my entrance
My main concern is ending this
sentence right with a harp
And meanwhile I'm two tone sharp
I better learn to stutter my words
M -m -m -m -mutter my friend
Some folks may symbolize
but they're faking
They aren't that deep,
they're just opaque
And hide in the holes,
burying their cardboard souls
And I, like a fool,
say nicely what I precisely intend
That's why I'm too scared to sing
with calm and with ease
I fear I'm addressing
words to the breeze
I fear that you think
I'm wasting your time
Oh, I'm too scared to
sing this song all alone
I'm too scared to sing,
too straight or too stoned
I'm too scared to reach
the end of this grind
Oh, I'm too scared to sing,
too scared to sing,
too scared to... sing
Too scared to sing, too scared to sing,
too scared to... sing
Too scared to sing, too scared to sing,
too scared to... sing!
