Back to Main Page

 

I’ve just reached that dark stage

But I’m not ready to act

The audience sitting there, silent

A pile up with little impact.

 

So I call for backup

And you don’t let me down

‘Cause you get my back up

Every time you’re around

 

You promised you’d turn me on

But you just turned on me

Spun round on a sixpence

Happy to watch me bleed

 

If this was not my life

Just a day job

I’d take a day off

Sit on the sofa and slob

 

But its so invasive

This occupying herd

And naked in the high court.

I utter just words.
