Nigel Understands

You say that Nigel knows

I only heard you talking

You say he understands

I say he doesn't know

You need a man, not me

It's up to you to tell him

I'm sure he won't complain

I'm sure he'll never know

And you say that Nigel understands

But you see me when he's not around

Count me out now to the crowd

And you say that Nigel sleeps a lot

His dreams are real 'cause his life is not

Try building castles in the sand

I see through Nigel's eyes

I see through Nigel's glasses

I wear his second-hand suits

Up front and on the side

You say he understands

I've heard it all before

I'm sure you'll drink to me

I guess you'll cry some more

And you say that Nigel understands

But you see me when he's not around

Count me out now to the crowd

And you say that Nigel sleeps a lot

His dreams are real 'cause his life is not

Try building castles in the sand

And you say that Nigel understands

But you see me when he's not around

Count me out now to the crowd

And you say that Nigel sleeps a lot

His dreams are real 'cause his life is not

Try building castles in the sand

Everybody but Nigel knows

That Nigel understands
