Debt collectors chasing me up (?)
in turn for wasting your luck (?)
I've got a fear of getting somewhere
and where I just don't know
Bad luck getting me down
A gathering of soulless clowns
Iâve got myself a habit Iâm never gonna kick
but I can see where its gonna end
When I was young
I was taught a little song
I only ever sing it
when things are going horribly wrong
It goes take a trip to the beach (?)
to see the master plan, a baby hyena and an olive branch (?)
stick it all in a fruit blender
With some mottos and some lovers and a vintage fender
And just to make sure you never wake up
from 25 years in an office job
other people meet (?)
But if I get a little something I can sleep
Other people meet (?)
But I just need a little something to wear to sleep
Other people weep (?)
But if I get a little something I can sleep
She'd made it perfectly clear
she didn't want me anywhere near
an empty flat with the heater full on
so why do i feel so cold?
I keep expecting her to walk through the door
the old coat not on the floor
I've last read a beautiful thing in this book (?)
I think that I might just turn in
when I was young
I was taught a little song
which I only ever use
when things are going horribly wrong
I need two soft arms to hold me tight
from the demons that haunt me in the middle of the night
beautiful grass and a bottle of light
I can't go to sleep in the dark
this pesky tape recorder tried to sleep in the light (?)
cause you never ever know how youâre gonna get flown (?)
Iâve gone to sleep â¦werenât/ wear it in bed (?)
I keep it inside my head
other people read
I just need a little something to make me sleep
other people read
but if I get my little something I can sleep
