Notes:

Who's that stomping
    all over my face?
Where's that silhouette
    I'm trying to trace?
Who's putting sponge
    in the bells I once rung
And taking my gypsy
    before she's begun
To singing the meaning
    of what's in my mind
Before I can take home
    what's rightfully mine.
Joinin' and listenin'
    and talkin' in rhymes
Stoppin' the feeling
    to wait for the times.

Who's saying baby,
    that don't mean a thing,
'Cause nowadays Clancy
    can't even sing.

And who's all hung-up
    on that happiness thing?
Who's trying to tune
    all the bells that he rings?
And who's in the corner
    and down on the floor
With pencil and paper
    just counting the score?
And who's trying to act
    like he's just in between?
The line isn't black,
    if you know that it's green.
Don't bother looking,
    you're too blind to see
Who's coming on
    like he wanted to be.

Who's saying baby,
    that don't mean a thing,
'Cause nowadays
    Clancy can't even sing.

And who's coming home
    on the old nine-to-five?
Who's got the feeling
    that he came alive,
Though havin' it,
    sharin' it
        ain't quite the same
It ain't no gold nugget,
    you can't lay a claim
Who's seeing eyes
    through the crack
        in the floor
There it is baby,
    don't you worry no more
Who should be sleepin',
    but is writing this song
Wishin' and a-hopin'
    he weren't so damned wrong.

Who's saying baby,
    that don't mean a thing,
'Cause nowadays Clancy
    can't even sing.
