Timmy the Dog, Tim Minchin - Fancy That lyrics

[Timmy the Dog, Tim Minchin - Fancy That lyrics]

You say that you feel really
Small when you're around me
Fancy that I always thought
I acted totally pathetic
You say that my attitude
Is monstrous condescending
Don't you know that lately I've
Been feeling little too?
So you say my sense of
Humour is offensive and imposing fancy that
And I was only trying to get
On what with your friends
So people misinterpret
Find my sarcasm confusing
And all along I thought that
I was totally see through

And mumma says I have a
Healthy understanding of my worth
Maybe I seem bigger since I put a
Little weight on 'round the girth
And people say that I always seem
To stick out in a crowd
But so did JFK, and we
All know what that means, don't we?
So you say people get blown away
When they first meet me
Fancy that I always work like
Hell just to be enough
You tell me my opinions
Are just too opinionated
Don't you know I often feel like
I've got nothing much to say?

So you say my confidence could
Be percieved as disrespectful fancy that
And I was just avoiding being bored to death
You say that my songs can
Be a little bit affronting
Don't you know I always saw
Myself as totally pretentious
And mumma says I have a
Well-developed sense of what I've
Does she think my self esteem is a
Function of my purple lycra top
And people say that I always seem
To stick out in a crowd
But so did the Elephant Man and we
All know what he said don't we?

And people say that I always seem
To stick out in a crowd
But so did Cassius Clay and we
All know how he eats, don't we?
