i am Mancini

but nobody knows

like nobody knows

i’m a phoney

nobody knows

where nobody goes

got no time

for that far fetched baloney

i am Mancini

but nobody cares

cause nobody knows

nobody cares

nobody knows

cause nobody feels

i’m tired all the time

none of this is mine

none of this is fine

it's all shifty and sublime

but i’m tired all the time

i want the sleep

that won’t be mine

i can't pretend

that this is fine

none of it

not one single bit

it will not bend

it will not fit

a million naps

don’t amount to shit

i’m tired

i am Mancini

and

i'm really tired
