Nothing came under[00:00:11]
The rays remained in the sun that day[00:00:12]
And life isnt full of surprises[00:00:15]
You think you could steal in[00:00:17]
Pop over the wall in the middle of the night[00:00:19]
Climb out of those heavy boots and clothes[00:00:21]
And into that cool blue[00:00:23]
Youre not even dipping your toe[00:00:25]
I find this bed too big now[00:00:27]
Its like those people you see on the way to work[00:00:29]
Stuck in an endless queue of traffic[00:00:31]
Each one in their own individual car[00:00:33]
Half of them coming from the same place[00:00:34]
Going to the same place[00:00:36]
Going nowhere[00:00:38]
They could quarter the amount of cars by sharing a lift[00:00:38]
Go on the bus wipe out all the cars[00:00:42]
I should rid myself of this bed get myself a cardboard box[00:00:45]
No waste of space[00:00:48]
No force of empty wasted space for your body to create its dent in[00:00:49]
I miss your back[00:00:54]
Youre back how are you[00:00:55]
What are you up to getting on okay[00:00:57]
F**k off[00:00:59]
Eighteen months ago they moved in here[00:00:59]
The scrap metal dealer to one side[00:01:01]
And divorced violinist to the other[00:01:03]
Each morning wed wake to the same chorus[00:01:05]
Of cookers and fridges being dragged on their sides across the concrete[00:01:07]
Accompanied by ravels bolero[00:01:09]
At first this was the best sound wed ever heard[00:01:11]
Hammer a six inch nail into my right ear[00:01:15]
Shove a red hot poker up my nose[00:01:17]
Make me walk on hot coals and broken glass[00:01:19]
Gouge out my eyes with a cocktail stick[00:01:21]
Rip my fingernails off[00:01:24]
The pain would be so much easier than doing nothing to me at all[00:01:26]
It was that dream again when I was on the table[00:01:29]
There was bright lights and laurence olivier out of the marathon man staring down at me[00:01:31]
As they unbuttoned my coat and unravelled my sweater[00:01:34]
And the shirt and the vest peeled[00:01:37]
And said did something die in here[00:01:40]
So whose bed you been sleeping in then[00:01:42]
Some poncey arsehole Ill bet[00:01:44]
I can see you there[00:01:45]
And it f**king hurts[00:01:46]
God I want to buy you bagels and cream cheese for breakfast[00:01:47]
Run down the corner shop without my undies or socks on[00:01:50]
Make some fresh coffee hop back into your warm bed[00:01:53]
And have those chats I miss so much[00:01:56]
Another coffee cigarette[00:01:58]
Fancy going to the pub later[00:02:00]
God its good to see you[00:02:01]
You always cheer me up[00:02:03]
