Mr Confidence (little schoolboy)
Mr confidence little schoolboy
Who are you discovering
Your true self or a parade of lies
Sit by the beating heart of my being
Pulse quickens blood restricts
Walking with my princess
But I’m a hollow shell
Fake a laugh
When all I want to say is
Run away with me
On a beach for two
With a fuzzy drink and umbrella
Had my chance
Struck out looking
Didn’t swing the bat
Take my best chance to show her
Kicking up dust
On the way back to the dugout
Spit on my hands
Grab my bat
Back in the box
Of my caramel dream
I’m a schoolboy when I see her
Heart beats fast
Perspiration on my brow
Could be my true love
I have to show her
Who are you discovering
Your true self or a parade of lies
Sit by the beating heart of my being
Pulse quickens blood restricts
Walking with my princess
But I’m a hollow shell
Fake a laugh
When all I want to say is
Run away with me
On a beach for two
With a fuzzy drink and umbrella
Had my chance
Struck out looking
Didn’t swing the bat
Take my best chance to show her
Kicking up dust
On the way back to the dugout
Spit on my hands
Grab my bat
Back in the box
Of my caramel dream
I’m a schoolboy when I see her
Heart beats fast
Perspiration on my brow
Could be my true love
I have to show her
