What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I break the silence with my voice
2
and everyone turns around
3
to see the source of all the noise
4
and here i stand
5
its not as thought i mean to upset you
6
with the things i say and do
7
i should know better but i said so anyway
8
its easier to play a part
9
and read your lines
10
than freely speak what's
11
in your heart and in your mind
12
Is it me?
13
who says these things that so offend you?
14
Innapropriate ???
15
i'd say I'm sorry
16
but it's hard to speak
17
with both feet in your mouth
18
all hail the king of dunces
19
You best hold on
20
I'm opening up my mouth
21
bring out the maypole
22
and tie up and shut me out
23
devil knows what possessed me
24
to shoot my arrow straight into the sky
25
string me to the mast and
26
hoist me up and hang me high
27
i put no blame on you
28
i brought this all upon myself
29
it's just this thing i do
30
at times like this
31
i wish i was someone else
32
there's a lever inside head
33
between my mouth and my brain
34
keeps me from hearing
35
what i've said until its too late
36
now it's too late
37
smear my lips with vaseline
38
because i'm a vocal libertine
39
I try to explain but even
40
i'm not quite sure what i mean
41
all hail the king of dunces
42
You best hold on
43
I'm opening up my mouth
44
bring out the maypole
45
and tie up and shut me out
46
devil knows what possessed me
47
to shoot my arrow straight into the sky
48
string me to the mast and
49
hoist me up and hang me high
50
i put no blame on you
51
i brought this all upon myself
52
it's just this thing i do
53
at times like this
54
i wish i was someone else
55
I don't know what to say
56
i was only trying to make you smile
57
and bring some needed levity
58
to your world for a while
59
i never meant to make you cry
60
but i did it all by myself
61
its just this thing i do
62
at times like this
63
i wish i was someone else
64
All hail the king of dunces...
65
All hail the king of fools
66
This boy's been bad
67
let's keep him after school
68
send me to the blackboard
69
and write a hundred times "i am the dunce"
70
devil knows what possessed me
71
to shut my mind and open up my mouth
72
string me to the anchor
73
and watch me drown in myself
