Another night you cannot sleep
Silly strategies and schemes keep you awake
And in your haste you've lost the sheep
And now there's nothing left to count but your mistakes
Now you're the center of attention
(And your walking on the air)
Such a delicate affair
(Now you know this)
A clever trick of your invention
(Such a good thing you're prepared)
So a circle gets a square
You'd like to lay it on the line
But you know your honesty won't win the fight
Afraid of running out of time
But no one ever sees a victory by being too polite
Now you're the center of attention
(And your walking on the air)
Such a delicate affair
(Now you know this)
A clever trick of your invention
(Such a good thing you're prepared)
So a circle gets a square
The neon lights are brightly buzzing, they're humming,
They frame your name in the marquee
Now you're what everyone's discussing, they're rushing,
And finally you're where they came to be
Ooooh, oooooh, oooh
And in the end you cannot move,
For there's a X in every corner, and the board is nearly full
Now you're the center of attention
(And your walking on the air)
Such a delicate affair
(Now you know this)
A clever trick of your invention
(Such a good thing you're prepared)
So a circle gets a square
(Circle gets a square)
So a circle gets a square
(Circle gets a...)
