You threw the hot pies at the baker All because you burnt your tongue It's easy to blame the maker
When you're watching from afar
And stars sing the hymn of nothing
Their faces without smiles
You stand on your platform
Judging from the aisles
If you don't want to get in
Don't tell me how to swim
When you were young you put your hand up
You threw your hat into the ring
Now you stay indoors and wonder
Mouth the words you cannot sing
But it's not as hard as it looks
You could join the choir
And nothing is stopping you now
Just the critic in the tower
If you don't want to get in
Don't tell me how to sing
Don't be afraid - make a start!
They always say it's the hardest part
The hardest part
