I am angry I am I'll and I'm as ugly as sin 
My irritability keeps me alive and kicking 
I know the meaning of life, it doesn't help me a bit 
I know beauty and I know a good thing when I see it 

This is a song from under the floorboards 
This is a song from where the wall is cracked 
By force of habit, I am an insect 
I have to confess I'm proud as hell of that fact 

I know the highest and the best 
I accord them all due respect 
But the brightest jewel inside of me 
Glows with pleasure at my own stupidity 

This is a song from under the floorboards 
This is a song from where the wall is cracked 
By force of habit, I am an insect 
I have to confess I'm proud as hell of that fact 

I used to make phantoms I could later chase 
Images of all that could be desired 
Then I got tired of counting all of these blessings 
And then I just got tired 

This is a song from under the floorboards 
This is a song from where the wall is cracked 
By force of habit, I am an insect 
I have to confess I'm proud as hell of that fact
