Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse - Jaykub lyrics

rate me

Jaykub, it's time for you to wake up and accept your awards

Inside your tiny little one room apartment of the poor

Up on the podium, you smile and you wave

Well they all thought that you were dumb

But it's you who's on that stage

Jaykub, you work until the day's done and then you go to bed

And never with anyone to talk to, you're the hero in your head (a hero...)

Up on the podium, you're handsome and you're tall

But actually you are just hardly five foot small

Jaykub, it's time again to wake up and accept your awards

And go on smiling while your landlord is pounding on the door

Up on the podium, you're famous and you're strong

Then the alarm goes off and you're a sad man in a song
