Verse: Another night you cannot sleep Silly strategies and schemes keep you awake And in your haste, you've lost the sheep And now there's nothing left to count but your mistakes Chorus: Now you're the center of attention (and you're walkin' on the air) Such a delicate affair (now you know it) A clever trick of your invention (such a good thing you're prepared) So circle gets a square Verse: You'd like to lay it on the line But you know your honesty won't end the fight Afraid of running out of time But no one ever sees a victory by being too blind Chorus: Now you're the center of attention (and you're walkin' on the air) Such a delicate affair (now you know it)
A clever trick of your invention (such a good thing you're prepared) So circle gets a square Bridge: The neon lights are brightly buzzing, their humming, they frame your name in the marquee Now you're what everyone's discussing, their rushing, finally aware they care to be (ooh ooh ooh) And in the end you cannot move For there's an X in every corner and the board is nearly full Chorus: Now you're the center of attention (and you're walkin' on the air) Such a delicate affair (now you know it) A clever trick of your invention (such a good thing you're prepared) So circle gets a square (circle gets a square) So circle gets a square (circle gets a)
