Third Man Lyrics

Before the captain calls to me I know where he"ll want me to be
I"ve dropped the ball too many times and out of sight is out of mind
To lessen my depression I spend session after session
In the decadent digression of a dream
Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
I think I"ll spend a little time planning crimes like Harry Lime
I"ll fantasise my enemies" demise "til tea arrives
I could make a killing like a villain in the film
Selling Fleming"s penicillin to Vienna
Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
'In the shadow of a doorway she is standing like a lost child
An old woman is screaming, the crowd"s becoming hostile
My thoughts have been diluted like a 2/6 novella
Am I in a field in England or in the dark streets of Vienna?"
Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
Hey hey, whiling away the best part of the day down at third man
Hey hey, watching the play as I daydream away down at third man
