The Duckworth Lewis Method - Third Man lyrics

Before the captain calls to me I know where he'll want me to be I've dropped the ball too many times and out of sight is out of mind To lessen my depression I spend session after session In the decadent digression of a dream Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man I think I'll spend a little time planning crimes like Harry Lime I'll fantasise my enemies' demise ‘til tea arrives I could make a k**ing like a villain in the film Selling Fleming's penicillin to Vienna Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man “In the shadow of a doorway she is standing like a lost child An old woman is screaming, the crowd's becoming hostile My thoughts have been diluted like a 2/6 novella Am I in a field in England or in the dark streets of Vienna?" Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
