Gonna give myself a talking to   I don't think I'm getting through   After that I'll knock it on the head      Gonna ask myself for one last try   Give myself a reason why   After that I'll knock it on the head      You can be sure, I'm trying my best   But I could stay in every night and still fail the test   I won't let on say everything's fine   The walls are closing in but I do not mind      I'm gonna give myself a talking to   I don't think I'm getting through   After that I'll knock it on the head      I'm gonna ask myself for one last try   Give myself a reason why   After that I'll knock it on the head      Make the phone ring, bring me good news   I live in deep freeze but I thawed out for you   God only knows what I'm gonna do now   I could get on but I don't know how      I'm gonna give myself a talking to   I don't think I'm getting through   After that I'll knock it on the head      I'm gonna ask myself for one last try   Give myself a reason why   After that I'll knock it on the head      Can I sleep slipping back?   And every day that passes ah, I want back   I want back now, now      Make the phone ring, bring me good news   I live in deep freeze but I thawed out for you   God only knows what I'm gonna do now   I could get on but I don't know how      Gonna give myself a talking to   I don't think I'm getting through   After that I'll knock it on the head   After that I'll knock it on the head   After that I'll knock it on the head      Gonna get somewhere   Gonna get somewhere   Gonna get somewhere
