Walking awkwardly into a room full of you

Lame duck Oh lame duck
walks into the room
swear to you
lame duck
what is it with you




Everything is now lame duck
sheets on the couch
cigarette butts on the carpet
the scratches on the fridge door
laughter from the chorals
and banter from the weak
have left us in awkward standing
another weekend rambling
about the should & shouldn't haves
of a woeful world




lame duck, oh lame duck
you haven't even tried
to change your life
but by the things that you said
it all seemed so nice.




Lame duck, oh lame duck
make sure they all hear you
quack.
No reason to fight off the infection
if you keep poisoning your mind
behind everyone's back




Lame duck, oh Lame Duck
Look at your walk
always peeking over your shoulder
and waddling your back
hoping someone will see you
maybe someone just might
catch your attention
and it's off to a new start
