I'll never

be clever

and I'll never

be steady

oh my feet dear

would i ever

be ready

for you

though I'll throw a rock against the wall

if it only falls to pieces

and I understand your question man

but it only left me sleepless

was that me who said i love you when we were gazing at the moon?

well I'm sorry sir, I take it back, I guess I spoke too soon

because I'll never

be clever

and i'll never

be like steady

oh my feet dear

would I ever

be ready

for you

Said I throw a rock against the wall

but it only falls to pieces

and i understand your question man

but it only left me speechless

and you should never really take me seriously

no my voice is only sound

and I'm a most terrific liar of song and laugh, but a true so wedding gown

is an impossible thing to imagine on me,

and I might as well ware a frown

and it's a flattering thing to be offered the ring

but I'd only always let you down

because I never

be clever

and I never

be stead, darling

and on my feet dear

would i ever

be ready

for you

I'll throw a rock against the wall

if it only falls to pieces

and I understand you question man

but it only left me sleepless

yeah it only left me
