Rupert Holmes - Too Scared to Sing lyrics

[Rupert Holmes - Too Scared to Sing lyrics]

I get scared when I'm performing
If I'm outnumbered, I need some warming up
Dear folks should I pull out some jokes?
They'd better be quite funny
You paid your money outside

Every lyric that I've ever written
Just left my brain and now
The words are sittin' off in the wing
And you're wondering, "Can't this guy sing?"
You liked the band before me much more
Ignore me, I'll hide
'Cause, I'm too scared to sing
This song all alone
I'm too scared to sing too
Straight or too stoned
I'm too scared to reach the end of this rhyme
Whoa, I'm
Too scared to sing, too scared to sing
Too scared to sing



I threw up before my entrance
My main concern is ending this sentence
Right with the harp
And meanwhile, I'm two tones sharp
I'd better learn to stutter my words
M-m-m-mutter, my friend

Some folks may symbolize, but they're fakin'
They aren't that deep, they're just opaque
And hiding the holes
Baring their cardboard souls
And I, like a fool
Say nicely what I precisely intend

That's why I'm too scared to sing
With calm and with ease
I fear I'm addressing words to the breeze
I fear that you think I'm wasting your time
Whoa, I'm
Too scared to sing this song all alone
I'm too scared to sing too
Straight or too stoned
I'm too scared to reach the end of this rhyme
Whoa, I'm
Too scared to sing, too scared to sing
Too scared to sing
Too scared to sing, too scared to sing
Too scared to sing
Too scared to sing, too scared to sing
Too scared to sing
