I haven't said a word for half a year and now I fear
That I've got nothing left to say
I meet interesting people who all have their mouths full
And I stand there looking dull and gray
It's not that my head’s empty it's just that my head’s busy
With things that others can not see
My eyes stare into space a blank expression on my face
And the world revolves around me
I do not say a word
I do not say a word
I do not say a word
I'm the most boring man in the world
But in my head
There is a party
And it's ecstatically happy
And I'm standing in the middle so excited
And there's a circus full of freaks
All fantastically unique
I'm sorry but you are not invited
Well I hope that you don't meet me
Cos I'll make you feel so sleepy
I'll simply nod my head to what you say
And I'll add nothing constructive
Conversation will just stop with
An awkward silence, have a good day
No I don't mean to be so dull
I've simply slumped into a lull
Once upon a time I used to be such fun
But now all the fun has disappeared
And all that’s left here
Is a flat brick wall that weighs a ton
I do not say a word
I do not say a word
I do not say a word
I'm the most boring man in the world
But in my head I speak philosophy
And all the answers come to me
In colours and in such exciting ways
And everything is interesting
The parties flying in full swing
And all you see a just a boring gaze
But behind these eyes a trapezests flies
And girls on stilts are breathing fire
And clown they bounce around on kangaroos
And elephants walk round on balls
Big ferocious lions roar
And there are hoops that giraffes can jump through
And the Ferris wheel goes round and round
Faster higher off the ground
Powered by some cheaters on a wheel
Jugglers juggling jugs jump jigs
Horses dance on their back legs
The sun is shining on a green grass field
And lollipops and fairy floss
Fun and games horse shoe toss
There is something here for everyone
A room to sit in and relax
A jumping castle that jumps in space
A great big place
But only room for one
Colourless, mundane, dreary dry stuffy
Flat drag uninteresting and weary
I'm sorry please repeat that
I wasn't quite here with it
I was flying somewhere far off with the fairies
I’m sure you've got a lot to say
I'm sure it's very interesting
And I'm sure that I should be listening
I'm sure that I should try to chit and chat
And do all things that
Normal people do, but that's not for me
I do not say a word
I do not say a word
I do not say a word
I'm the most boring man in the world
