Life is cruel and nothing simple
Pandoras box or the colour of your hair
A show-off touch but nothing sinful
A token gesture shows you sort of care

Hide all your feelings
Hide all your fears
Hide all your everything
Just don't hide your tears

Oh yeah
Scaredycat you are
 
It's a mess but there's always tomorrow
Lift the rug, sweep them all away
Bury your head in the face of decision
The sun is shining so it's time for play

It's all very simple
It's all very clear
It's all very everything
Just don't hide your fear

Oh yeah
Scaredycat you are
Oh yeah
Scaredycat you are
 
Bully's friend holding onto coattails
A frightened look and a childish grin
Safety first in the form of a blanket
It's no surprise at the state you're in

One day you'll realise
One day you'll see
One day is everything
And you'll pour it out to me

Oh yeah
Scaredycat you are
Oh yeah
Scaredycat you are
