One good day, hoping for another, waiting for a messenger, waiting for a knock on the door, you say that I'll never have to worry
when I get paid, I get paid, I get paid a visit from my father, looking for my mother, got a clear view that she's stumbled into bother
But woah, woah! Why would you think that, Dad? She's cool, she's out with Pauline, Maureen, Lyn & Dave, I think you're going mad. It must get lonely some days when you're on your own, working on the garden, digging up a conifer, drinking three bottles a day, you say that you'll never have to worry about dementia, dementia. She mentioned a relative opium den of a dinner, covered in butter, covered in butter, now it's spinach, kale and flax seed at the bottom, can't see a box without thinking of a coffin and you're overwhelmed cause you don't want to die, I joke that I cannot see why and I'm only hoping I can reach the sky before I come on crashing down to earth. Mama's running from a lover low like a Desdemona. Daddy's had a little dizzy spell and I'm on the dole. It seems that if you're happy you're a druggy, if you're sober then you just don't want to know. Please excuse me for being ironic, helps me when I'm clean to not be so psychotic. When anxiety is out and Louise is in I'm pretty laid back, with eyes peeled and a straight back you're buying free range and totally organic. Mother got sick and died without a panic. She was all post war, a ration for a carrot, a working class labour with a mark on every ballot, and you're overwhelmed ‘cause you don't want to die. I joke that I cannot see why. I'm only hoping I can reach the sky before I come on crashing down to earth. Mama's running from a lover low like a Desdemona. Daddy's had a little dizzy spell and I'm on the dole. It seems that if you're happy you're a druggy, if you're sober then you just don't want to know what goes on when you let yourself go. One good day, hoping for another, waiting for a messenger, waiting for a knock on the door, you say that I'll never have to worrywhen I get paid, I get paid, I get paid a visit from the doctor, been talking to my mother, got a clear view that I've stumbled into bother. But woah, woah - why would you think that man?
I think you're going mad…
