Lyrics

The Shape He?s In (Old version approx. bpms 117) (Zeftrons version approx. bpms 113)
Headed lonely down a one way street
Half way down he sees there?s no retreat
Oh yeah, this time he?s playing to win
But he left his motor running in her drive
It ain?t enough and he don?t know why
Oh yeah, that?s the shape he?s in

She?s a lovely one there ain?t no doubt
But looks don?t help you when you can?t put out
Oh no, like when she?s next to him
And every weekend was another date
A thousand men would hurry and wait
To see, the shape she?s in (2)

Tried to carry it all on his shoulders
But little by little he got colder and colder
And she?s got a box of dreams that holds her
And it won?t let her in

The house has windows and a big glass door
Open ceilings, they?ve got space galore
But the walls hide the shape their in
They try to climb them but they can?t get out
Locked behind them with the screams and shouts
Oh yeah, that?s the shape they?re in (2)
