Square Things

Jonathan Coulton

[Verse 1]
I love the shape of square things
But in my defense
Right at the edge is where things
Started to not make sense

[Verse 2]
Inside the cube you're spinning
Colors slide into place
Just when you think you're winning
Mix up a different face

[Chorus 1]
And you wish for bigger fish or
Just some other thing
So you cast her in your disaster
Yes it hurts but only when you sing

[Verse 3]
Like your heart is broken
Bruise at the softest touch
Best leave the rest unspoken
Who wants to care that much

[Chorus 2]
Here's your chance, kid
Look what you did
How could I complain
At the world's end
With a new friend
Getting high on the same old dumb champagne

[Bridge]
Still me
Quiet as a grave
I could play dumb
Walk away from
What might be
Something I can save
Take my chances
Circumstances won't change me much

[Chorus 3]
God forbid you
Leave the grid you
Know you must disclose
That's your one strike
What's it feel like
Soft and round but sometimes even those

[Outro]
Things are shaped like square things
Corners where you can hide
Sometimes you can't repair things
Everyone choose a side
