about

Another leftover from FAWM 2011, this one always felt a bit unfinished but I think the chorus is quite catchy. So, eventually (this afternoon), I added a couple of bits to it and now it feels LESS unfinished. Hooray!

lyrics

woke up this morning feeling the worst
stubbed my toe on a chair, and cursed
run to the toilet 'cos I feel like I could burst
then head for the shower but someone got there first
try to make toast but I've run out of bread
consider scraping crumbs from the sunflower spread
give up, pour a bowl full of cereal instead
but the milk is sour; should have stayed in bed

coffee after coffee but I'm still feeling tired
just feel like my head is a flat tyre
phone into work and they tell me that I'm fired
just feel like my head is a flat tyre

head back upstairs, trip over the cat
he screeches and scratches as I fall flat
then retreats to safety, tail puffed up and fat
it'll be weeks before I hear the end of that
hobble back to bed and put the radio on
but nothing happens; the power has gone
from the window I see a dog using my lawn
as a toilet, and all I can do is yawn
