A fool and his money are soon parted
For every winner there’s more losers
As the porn actress said to the bishop
We should know that beggars can’t be choosers
The bigger the bank the harder the fall
Do all good things have to come to an end?
Financial institutions at deaths door.
Searching for someone with money to lend
Trying hard to keep the wolves from the door
Bankers biting off more than they can chew
they now know, all that glitters is not gold
never try to bite the hand that feeds you
Rising like a Phoenix from the ashes
In a nutshell, they’ll be saved by the bell
And not between a rock and a hard place?
The blind lead the blind on the road to hell

The future? Is a mystery
The past is now history
Don’t dwell to much on past mistakes
No more dreams, now we’re wide awake
You know the past can’t be changed
The future can be re-arranged
If you can think it, then do it
Don’t die thinking that life’s been shit
Nothing stays the same for ever
Be kind to yourself, be clever
Focus on the good things in life
Talk things through with husband or wife
Try to be open and honest
Do things that YOU like doing best
Have an affair, a bit of romance?
Go on a trip to Paris, France
Live for the moment, for the day
Love your life, live it your own way
Try to learn how to love yourself
This is about you, not myself…….

To me you look all the same
Treating life like it’s a game
Speeding up before you came
Not so wild that I can’t tame
Each night you go out to play
Searching for some place to stay
Sleeping it off through the day
For your deeds some day you’ll pay
On the prowl for a new slave
Lonely souls are not that brave
Feeling loved you really crave
Heading for an early grave
A better life you must find
Open your eyes, don’t stay blind
Pleasant thoughts enter your mind
Your dark days now left behind
Found love, a love without ties
Only dead men tell no lies
Looking deep into her eyes
As your new born baby cries
A new life you have now found
Foundations deep in the ground
Smiling faces all around
The kiss of life? Have you drowned?

Would you rather die, or just fade away?
To live your life, and fight another day
Live every day as if it were your last
Forgetting all your mistakes from the past
Never letting the bastards grind you down
Keep on smiling and never wear a frown
What does not kill you can make you stronger
Live fast, die young, go slow and live longer?
Will the Earth ever meet its Waterloo?
Why should I have to mind my “P’s & Q’s? ”
Do we now care about life way too much?
If we can look, then surely we can touch
If life is a joke why don’t I get it
If you have no aim in life, you’ll hit it
To forgive is divine, to forget is..?
Why do we think that ignorance is bliss?

Look at all these bills still to be paid, are you listening to me
(You’re in my way woman, I’m trying to watch sport on TV)
I need a bit more help from you, you do nothing around here
(I do plenty, Oh that’s it, I’m off to the pub for a pint of beer)
Yes that’s it, off you go, drown your never-ending imaginary sorrows
The bills won’t go away, they’ll still be waiting here tomorrow
(Nag, nag, nag, from morning ‘til night that’s all you ever do)
(Alright, I’ll have a look at the bills, if you really want me to)
I just want you to take an interest, you know a problem shared
I can’t do it all on my own, work, home, kids, duties that you’re spared
(I know, but when I get in from work I just feel so tired these days)
How do you think I feel then? Running around in a constant daze
(So it’s all my fault then is it? I’m sorry, but that’s just me)
(I’m the same man you married, I’ve not changed my personality)
OH MY GOD, you haven’t changed? I don’t believe I’m hearing this
We used to make love nearly every day, now I don’t even get a kiss
(Is that what this is all about? Let’s go upstairs and do it now then)
No it’s not what this is all about, why do I have to explain myself again
You never listen, you never talk, you never take me out with you anymore
You never do anything about the house, you sit there in your chair and snore
The grass needs cutting, the windows need washed, the car needs cleaning
(Oh write up a list for me, I’ll go through it, if that’s what you’re meaning)
Don’t use your sarcasm on me, things are bad, in fact they’ve never been worse
Well this is it then? Life’s hard, it’s tough, all I want from you is a DIVORCE

What do I see? What do I see? Who can it be?
What do I hear? What do I hear? What do I fear?
What do I smell? What do I smell? Is that Channelle?
What do I touch? What can I touch? Not very much.
What do I taste? What do I taste? Peppermint toothpaste?
What do I feel? What do I feel? Keeping it real
What do I drink? What do I drink? Causing a stink
What do I wear? What do I wear? See if I care
What do I do? What do I do? Between me and you
What do I want? What do I want? Why do we taunt?
What do I say? What do I say? Please don’t go away
What do I care? What do I care? Is there anyone there?
What do I think? What do I think? I can’t even have a drink
What do I know? What do I know? Watch out, I gotta go
WHAT DO I SHOUT? WHAT DO I SHOUT? WHAT IS THIS ALL ABOUT???/ |
