[rev. Feb. 15, 2019]

Olivia sewed up her skirt again
By the time the morning came it had broken
And I dragged the sleep out of my eyes
And realized that I had awoken

Martin lost his cane last night
He wrote a poem on the kitchen table
And Dare let his coffee go cold
And he said that he just wasn't able

I don't know why, why, why I die so badly
I don't know why I try so hard

I fell off the chair
Onto the floor
I trapped my fingers
Under the door

Hudley slept in his football kit
And dreamt he was top of the table
And Boydie woke up to the roar of the crowd
And realized it's all just a fable
Julian parked his van outside
He loaded a grand piano
Duncan blew his flute like a gale force wind
'Til he suddenly ran out of ammo

I don't know why, why, why time moves so slowly
When I try, try, try so hard

I fell out of bed
Onto my back
Sometimes I feel
I've gone off the track

(Find a way, yeah)
(Find a way, yeah)

And I know why, why, why I love you all so madly
I don't have to try, try, try so hard

I broke my pen
I ran out of ink
Wrote half a list
And started to think
Slumped in a chair
I fell asleep
Awoke with a start
In a field full of sheep
