"The Incredible" lyrics

"The Incredible"

I am the incredible shrinking man
The longer I live the smaller I stand
I was the irrelevant, misplaced son
Inconsequential, awkward and undone

Too short for the wishing well
Oh well, you can all just go to hell
And maybe today
Things will go my way
'Cause it all seems cruel
When you're made to play the fool

Why ask why
After all, we die
Must seem like you're always wrong
In a world where you don't belong

I am the incredible melting man
Becoming nothing as long as I can
I'll be a puddle by the end of the day
Wasn't much of a person anyway

Too late for the dinner bell
Oh well, you can all just go to hell
And maybe today
Things will go my way
'Cause it all seems cruel
When you're made to play the fool

Why ask why
After all, we die
Must seem like you're always wrong
In a world where you don't belong

It'd be fine I'd be having a ball
Don't give me grief
It could happen to you each and all
But I need relief
I hurt you 'cause my mind is mush
That's my excuse
I'm the weirdo hiding in the bush
And I'm on the loose
I'm a sloppy tiny angry man
Hurting all the people that I can

I am the incredibly wasted man
Thought I had a promise
Thought there was a plan
I am the incredulous thinking fuck
I threw away my time and I'm out of luck

(It was as if my body had ceased to exist
There was no hunger
No longer the terrible fear of shrinking)
