Richard Thompson - Shut It Tight lyrics

I find it hard sometimes to say the way that I feel I do the very things I hate to do I act like a child and I'm afraid of what is real So I try to cover up the truth I stumble like a drunk along this crazy path I walk I have a hundred thousand questions too I'll go to any length to prove that nothing is my fault Later on I will deny the proofs I don't like to win but then again I hate to lose And in between is something I can't stand I don't care what you think and I hope that you approve I am just an ordinary man Sometimes I wanna stop and crawl back into the womb Sometimes I cannot tell wrong from right But I ain't gonna quit until I'm laid in my tomb And even then they'd better shut it tight
