I'm sick of working for a living
I'm just ticking off the days till I die
I miss you Louise
And the sickest little pleasures keep me going in between pulling teeth

Periscope up
I've been looking for a ladder
I need to see THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF
And remind him what was passed onto me

Your mum don't sleep!
The friends you keep!
I didn't raise a thief!

But the LEADERS OF THE FREE WORLD
Are just little boys throwing stones
And its easy to ignore �til they're knocking on the door of your homes

My thinking isn't driven
But the music always gives me a lift
I'm so easy to please
But I think we dropped the baton like the 60's didn't happen. Oh no.

Periscope up
Should be looking for a ladder
I need to se THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF
And remind him what was passed onto me

Your mum don't sleep!
The friends you keep!
I didn't raise a thief!

Passing the gun from Father to FECKLESS son
We're climbing a landslide where only the good die young

An Imagined Affair
A sky as black as regret
is rolling aside for the blue
Impossible face to forget
These feelings belong in a zoo

She brings the morning
She brings the morning sun

So lost in the sound of her voice
I don,t even hear the words
When she says come on get out
The past will find us out
Come on get out please
And don't breathe a word

She brings the morning
She brings the morning sun

But all this an imagined affair
While sitting in a bar spilling in a bar
I drink until the doorman is a Christmas tree
And my speech is just a gas leak
