Lyrics
I'm making hardcore moves Give me that f*cking microphone Unless the weather improves I'll drift along in a sea of known unknowns Shuffling my papers and my salivary glands The whole world a stage and I'm on stage I got the whole world in my hands But I'm a quiet man, I'm such a quiet man Camera-shy and pee-shy The furthest thing from inspiring What a glorious feeling to be standing here amongst all of you I only wish my mama could've been here to see me up here tonight I never house an animal Without thinking of its needs I never create a manimal Without understanding how it bleeds But I'm a quiet man A peaceful unassuming man I much prefer to remain mute [Spoken] I really don't have much to say And I don't know what you think I saw out there that night but Let me assure you that mum's the word I'm not gonna go trying to be a hero like Bobby in safety and oversight And go saying things I shouldn't say, no siree And I know he would like to say a few words here tonight but The Government had him killed And I see his lovely wife-widow, Janice here tonight She's got a long difficult road ahead of her now Let's tell her how we'll always be there for her And buy her a gin and tonic at the cash bar with a twist of lime If you don't get a little choked up just thinking about all that Well then you ain't got a soul, buddy Oh and by the way It don't take debonair or class To make your mark in oil and gas Just learn to look the other way And it will all be okay I swear it'll be okay
