the trouble with templeton – i wrote a novel lyrics
[verse 1]
i wrote a novel about it
grammatically it’s full of holes
my specialty has never been
knowing where them commas go
and i made a promise about it
and you’d think by now i would have learned
that page and pen and good intent
don’t represent a corner turned
[chorus]
i should know better than i do
and i would, if i could, if i had the will to want to
but i already know this, i already know this well
and yet i remain it, i remain it still
[verse 2]
and i’m so frightened of failure
that i’m scared to even begin
that irony’s not lost on me
i just refuse to let it sink in
and i’m a creature of habit
cotton, comfort, sun, and cold
leave me outside when the river’s high
and eventually i’ll turn to stone
[chorus]
i should know better than i do
and i would, if i could, if only i had the will… oh, forget about it
but i already know this, i already know this well
and yet i remain it, i remain it still
and i already know this, i already know this well
and yet i remain it, i remain it still
[instrumental + whistle]
[outro]
oh i already know this, i already know this well
and yet i remain it, i remain it still
