Before the captain calls to me I know where he'll want me to be
I've dropped the ball too many times and out of sight is out of mind
To lessen my depression I spend session after session
In the decadent digression of a dream
Hey, hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey, hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
I think I'll spend a little time planning crimes like Harry Lime
I'll fantasize my enemies' demise 'til tea arrives
I could make a killing like a villain in the film
Selling Fleming's penicillin to Vienna
Hey, hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey, hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
In the shadow of a doorway she is standing like a lost child
An old woman is screaming, the crowd's becoming hostile
My thoughts have been diluted like a 2 and 6 novella
Am I in a field in England or in the dark streets of Vienna?
Hey, hey (hey, hey...)
Hey, hey (hey, hey...)
Hey, hey (hey, hey...)
Hey, hey (hey, hey...)
Hey, hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey, hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
Hey, hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey, hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
Hey, hey
