lyrics

Excuse me for living
But I don’t quite know what you're asking
Are you being obtuse
Or will the answer be your unmasking
I know I can be stupid
I know I can be dense
But to me what you're saying
Well it don't make much sense

This is who I am
Guess I got a faulty way of thinking
You talk with such confidence
And say what you say without blinking
I wish that I were smarter
Wish I weren't so dumb
Think of the kind of person
I might've become

When God passed out heads
I thought he said beds
And I ordered me a soft one
When God passed out brains
I thought he said trains
And it looks like I missed mine
Gee I'm such a mess

Sorry I raised my hand
But it's not that I am raising an objection
You got your own way of speaking
And it sounds to me like a bad connection
I know I'm none too swift
I know I get shit wrong
But if you show me the way
I'll be happy to go along

Excuse me for living
But I am truly quite befuddled
I've listened to your every word
And in the end it all seems muddled
Maybe if I hang in there
I'll finally see with clarity
But there doesn't seem to be much hope
For a dope like me
