Momus - Incompetence lyrics

[Momus - Incompetence lyrics]

I feel like rubbish flotsam
Floating on a sea
I feel seasick, completely rotten
Drowning in a shipwreck caused by me

Staggering up a road less travelled
Too late! The road's unravelled
Must be some kind of gift to fuck up so badly
What could have been your life

Standing scratching in your ruined garden
I feel like a procession of one
I wonder if you're still alive
Well your lights are on but
Now it starts to rain

Well you waited but I never came
It must be some kind of gift
To fuck it up so badly
I'm trying to steer with the edge of a knife
What could have been my life



There's a cat hanging round
Who seems to know me seems to agree
That my chance has gone

And as my life begins to unravel
I'm grinning on tiptoe on your gravel
Trying to glimpse a shelter from the rain
Well you waited, you waited but I never came

It must take some kind of gift
To fuck it up so badly
The valley of rift that I survey so sadly
I feel the pain between my shoulder blades
This could have been my life

And I'm staggering up a road less travelled
Too late! The road's unravelled
It's some kind of gift to fuck up so badly
What could have been your life
