David Bridie Stumble Away lyrics

Would you like to run faster
But you know there's no way
There's only enthusiasts anywhere today
And should the hope 'round the corner
Prove quite a surprise
There's a man with a card saying
"Don't be sick, don't be old, don't be ordinary, otherwise"

I don't feel so good today, Well I fall down

It pays to keep your eyes open
Read beneath what they say
This is all one great big lie
Just like Australia day
And the crowd are out watching
The fireworks in the rain
They all do nothing, say nothing
Silence is lying


I don't feel so good today, then I fall down
Then I stumble away, stumble away

I wish that I may, and I wish that I might
Keep my head and my nerve if the fight is a good fight
Should the hope round the corner prove quite a surprise
And there's a man with a card saying
"don't be sick, don't be old, don't be ordinary
Otherwise..."

I don't feel so good today, then I fall down
Then stumble away, stumble away, stumble away
