lyrics
Everybody knows I'm a loser
Reflections in the glass catch my accuser
The twin within that never goes to sleep
Sews a suit of doubt and failure
Nicer than a Siamese tailor
Everybody knows about my delusions
Everybody's come to one conclusion
He's got a brother you should never meet
Sit around and fire rockets
At everybody's heart-shaped lockets
Homeless romantics sweeping the street
Answer the question "how do you sleep?"
Well I sleep like a warm jet engine
Everybody loves a man on fire
Everybody wants to pet my tiger
He’s wandering the garden as we speak
Absent minded match-book writers
Huck Finn punks and flyweight fighters
Everybody knows I'm a loser
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
Reflections in the glass catch my accuser
The twin within that never goes to sleep
Sews a suit of doubt and failure
Nicer than a Siamese tailor
Everybody knows about my delusions
Everybody's come to one conclusion
He's got a brother you should never meet
Sit around and fire rockets
At everybody's heart-shaped lockets
Homeless romantics sweeping the street
Answer the question "how do you sleep?"
Well I sleep like a warm jet engine
Everybody loves a man on fire
Everybody wants to pet my tiger
He’s wandering the garden as we speak
Absent minded match-book writers
Huck Finn punks and flyweight fighters
Everybody knows I'm a loser
Everybody knows
Everybody knows
