Squeeze - Lost For Words lyrics

(Difford/Tilbrook)

I'm lost for words which is strange for me

Stretched out like elastic bands

I'm lost for words and no longer see

Why they've slipped right through my hands

What a lunch you made

With a stew so thick

That I was afraid

I might chew a brick

Then I talked to you

With my flapping tongue

Choking on my words

I'm lost for words in the letters I write

Smudged with a bleeding pen

I'm lost for words that I never liked

But I want to use my

Abandoned words which is strange for me

Stretched out like elastic bands

I'm lost for words and no longer see

Why they've slipped right through my hands
