i might have given a fuck once

i might have happened to have had one spare

i always jump before i look

they said i wouldn’t dare

they say they say

that everything is ok

is it?

they also said

everything was fine

but it’s not

they said a nods as good as a wink

but are they talking horses or bats?

one in the hand or two in the bush

and it works like a face full of cats

they say they say

that everything is ok

is it?

they also said

everything was fine

but it’s not

it works like a wet the bed again dream

it works like a broken toothed charm

take off ya eyelids take off ya smile

take off half ya fuckin arm

they say they say

that everything is ok

is it?

and then they said

everything is fine

but it aint!
