Square Pegs Lyrics

Square Pegs lyrics

Lately I’ve heard this song, you see,
And it will not let me
be.
It’s a measure or two with a hell of a groove
But a lot of
simplicity.
It’s the kind of a song you want to write for your
mom
It’s the kind of a song that makes you hum for a
while
It’s the kind of a song that’s kind of stupid and dumb.

Just another tarnished diamond for the pile.

And here I am, smashing
square pegs into round holes.
Here I am, weakening the whole.

Square
pegs, we’ll knock all their blocks off this time
With a hell of a
melody rhyme,
Always keeping in mind that I’m
As square as they
come, well that’s fine.
I’ll spend all my money and
time
Spinning wheels on an incline.

Staying inside has got me
doubting my mind
And doing battle with phantoms again.
In the form of
some notes,
I think a musical ghost
Is digging dead melodies from my
head.
I should be out in the sun, I should be having some fun.
I should
be drinking some beer, I should be reading somewhere.
I should be seeing my
wife instead of wasting my nights
And from all that I hear I should be
getting my hair cut

But here I am, with 53 chords and broken horn
lines.
But here I am, losing my mind.

Square pegs, we’ll knock
all their blocks off this time
With a hell of a melody rhyme,
Always
keeping in mind that I’m
As square as they come, well that’s
fine.
I’ll spend all my money and time
Spinning wheels on an
incline.
