Fall Guy by Paul Kelly and the Dots Lyrics

On slippery ice he's skating
But he don't have a care
Beneath his feet its breaking
But his head's in the air
Everyone's anticipating
He's gonna take a dive
Turn down your conversations
Here comes the fall guy

Here comes that fall guy
Here comes that fall guy

I know I shouldn't ought to
Reach for illusion
Just like a lamb to the slaughter
I only see confusion
Everyone's in expectation
This head is gonna roll
Turn down your conversations
Here comes the fall guy
You can't help bad luck oh no
You can't help bad luck oh no
You can't help bad luck oh no
But it's a fool who puts his head in a frame

On slippery ice he's skating
But he don't have a care
Beneath his feet its breaking
But his head's in the air
Everyone's anticipating
He's gonna take a dive
Turn down your conversations
Here comes the fall guy

You can't help bad luck oh no
You can't help bad luck oh no
You can't help bad luck oh no
Here comes that fall guy

You can't help bad luck oh no
Here comes that fall guy
