Oh, Oscar
Oh, oscar
I thought i wanted you but
Now i'm here in the crux
In the dark and the dust
Oh, oscar
I thought i wanted you but
Now i'm here in the crux
In the dark and the dust
In the cold and the damp
'neath the old fashioned lamp
And i am soberly lured
By the day i've endured
As i trace my steps back to the start
Oh, oscar
Your veneer's golden mirth
My career's natural birth
And its ultimate fall
I found a couple flints to make a spark
And set a fire in their hearts
Oh, oscar
Like the tree bursts in snow
All i wanted was to know
If there's anyone like me
A single person who can see
In this whole god damned country
