You wait hours for a fool
Then three turn up at once
The doctor says
You have acute hypomania
It's a running joke
You say the nicest things
You really say the nicest things
You're looking at me
An also-ran in the human race
Can't help looking at me
I can't help looking out of place
Waiting months to be seen
Let me down all at once
The doctor says
You're a complete failure
It's a running joke
At least I'm good at something
At least there's something I'm good at
You're looking at me
An also-ran in the human race
Can't help looking at me
I can't help looking out of place
Waiting years for a chance
Nothing happens at all
And no one said
It's time to stop running now
Its a running joke
It's time to stop running now
Its time for me to stop running now
Please don't be nice to me
I can't handle you being nice
I'm opting out of the human race
Out of the running in the human race
I have a copy of the tape from Howard Blackburn - Nicks brother, whilst at Sheff Poly. Have been looking for a digital version for some time, so great to have found it. For me my favorite Russians music.
