about

If every day’s a battle, know you’ve got an army out there. This song is dedicated to all of us who live in our heads.

lyrics

Lyrics:

Here we go again, another fucking day
Why did I have to wake up.
Nothing in the fridge gonna have to go outside
I don’t bother with makeup anymore

And when I leave the flat I’m inevitably forced to engage
With some old lizard eyed blue shirt black tie white family man
Who eyes me like I’m an easy target

Way. What a way!

So I lean on my old and trusted friend, ten milligrams of Valium
I find it invaluable in giving the appearance that
I am one of them. But one of them I am not

When I get to the shops I’m inevitably forced to engage
With some effervescent girl who’s got the whole wide world
In her chewed half painted fingernails

Way. What a way! To live.

Living in a tea cake
Living in a tea cake
Nobody can hurt me
When I’m living in a tea cake

Living in a tea cake
Living in a tea cake
Nobody can hurt me
Just focus on the tea cake

And I will be home soon
I will be home soon
I will be home soon
In my c-cocoon

I don’t wanna get out
I don’t wanna be free
I don’t wanna get out there
I don’t wanna be me

And the check-out girl
Is checking out me
The family man
Forgets his family

I don’t wanna know
I don’t wanna pay
I just wanna get away, away, AWAY!

What a way!

To live.
