Ducks Lyrics by When The Clock Strikes

Overnight

2018

I can’t get my ducks in a row
They just spread their wings and peck at me
When I get too close
Some days are just for the birds
But things can always get worse

They used to
Waddle, now they’re flying instead
So I’ll guess I’ll run for cover as
They aim for my head
Is there egg on my face?
Or if it’s something else
I don’t wanna know

I can’t get my ducks in a row
They just spread their wings and peck at me
When I get too close
Some days are just for the birds
But things can always get worse

They used to
Waddle, now they’re flying instead
So I’ll guess I’ll run for cover as
They aim for my head
Is there egg on my face?
Or if it’s something else
I don’t wanna know

I need a shower
Then I’ll show them
That I’m not finished yet
And I’ll look pretty
As I put them in their place
(Yeah right)

Life just likes to laugh at me
I never asked to star in my own comedy
But I’m pretty sure that life just likes to laugh at me
So I’ll let myself in on the joke

(Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Guitar Solo]

I can’t get my ducks in a row
They just spread their wings and peck at me
When I get too close
But I won’t be foiled again
'Cause this time I’ve got a plan

Oh, I followed them back to the nest
But I brought some bags of chicken feed
So I don’t get wrecked
Nobody’s fun when they’re hangry
But we’ll get along 'til dinner is done

I made an impression
Cause the ducklings all imprinted on me
And I’ll look foolish
As they follow me around

Life just likes to laugh at me (go on and laugh [?])
I guess I could be mad, but I don’t want to be (I just don't even care anymore)
I hope I never take myself too seriously
So I’ll let myself in on the joke (hahahahahahaha)

Life just likes to laugh at me
Most of my existence is embarrassing (can we please not bring that up?)
But we’ll all look back and laugh at this eventually (at least I hope so)
So I’ll let myself in on the joke

Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh x2
