The Magnetic Fields Lyrics

"The Boy In The Corner"

I was always the boy in the corner
Scribbling in my little book
You felt at home in the spotlight
Let everyone get a look

Then one day the boy in the corner
Was struck by some lightning and killed
You kept dancing in the spotlight
Glittering, coiffed, and fulfilled
