[00:21.67]Picture this 2.30 
[00:23.12]on the hottest night in June
[00:24.68]He awakes for no reason 
[00:26.24]and checks his watch by the moon
[00:28.07]And his mouth feels as dry as 
[00:29.88]his eyes as he struggles to rise
[00:31.69]And stops to contemplate 
[00:32.67]his wife’s thighs as he does up his flies
[00:35.10]He finds his slippers 
[00:36.30]where he left them under the chair 
[00:37.70]behind the 2 cups 
[00:39.50]and an old copy of marie claire
[00:41.29]He switches the on the coffee machine 
[00:42.89]that of course works like a dream
[00:44.51]catches sight of his reflection 
[00:46.13]in the silver surface sheen
[00:47.81]And It’s a face he knows well 
[00:49.40]although it should look less abused
[00:51.06]With all these moisturisers 
[00:52.74]and the skin products he’s used
[00:54.36]As he moves through the kitchen, 
[00:55.83]his homage to brushed steel
[00:57.61]Across the new pine flooring 
[00:59.16]that’s plastic but looks real
[01:00.78]Past the plasma with the widescreen 
[01:02.61]and the cinema surround sound
[01:04.26]And he stops on his favourite 
[01:05.68]spot by the window and looks down
[01:07.49]On the orange lit street 
[01:08.86]at the edge of the private car park
[01:10.58]Where his Audi TT is waiting safely in the dark
[01:13.96]
[01:20.64]Keeping it all inside of you
[01:27.13]Something will have to give
[01:33.82]And if you could you’ll take it back
[01:40.34]But you lose your way in the way you live
[01:46.19]
[01:59.80]Now he can hear wind chimes 
[02:01.18]tinkling out on the balcony
[02:03.30]And his phone beeping out a text message 
[02:05.09]in the same key
[02:06.80]He checks it and it’s Jill 
[02:08.46]who used to be his secretary
[02:09.85]Before they started an affair 
[02:11.41]and things began to get really scary
[02:13.72]Now his wife Mary is getting weary of his lies
[02:16.91]Like she’s read the whole 
[02:18.61]sordid story in his eyes
[02:20.11]It doesn’t help that 
[02:21.58]Jill’s now saying that she’s 2 weeks late
[02:23.69]His mental state is really 
[02:25.06]starting to deteriorate
[02:26.96]
[02:27.14]He never knew how he got so out of his depth
[02:29.72]Or why he’s broken more than 
[02:31.37]all these promises kept
[02:32.97]And it’s been ages since he slept
[02:35.73]Properly, his sleeps now broken 
[02:37.86]by these dreams of extra-marital activity
[02:39.85]Trying to recapture the rapture 
[02:42.19]that he used to get from his material possessions
[02:44.50]And endless retail therapy sessions
[02:46.51]Shoulda listened to what his dad said before he died
[02:49.82]The best things in life 
[02:51.33]are the ones you can’t buy son
[02:53.19]
[02:53.43]Keeping it all inside of you
[02:59.09]Something will have to give
[03:05.75]Wish you could buy a ticket back
[03:12.30]But you lose your way in the way you live
[03:18.72]
[03:19.10]He used to feel so safe up here 
[03:20.62]in his shrine to Ikea
[03:22.21]Away from the shouts and the louts 
[03:23.66]and the girls with the over-painted pouts
[03:25.73]And the queers and the dykes 
[03:27.17]and the kids in their box-fresh Nikes
[03:28.70]Delivering rocks to the house 
[03:29.91]across the street on rusty mountain bikes
[03:32.16]
[03:33.87]Aah aah
[03:45.25]
[03:45.49]He used to feel so safe up here 
[03:47.10]in his shrine to Ikea
[03:48.43]Away from the shouts and the louts 
[03:49.93]and the girls with the over-painted pouts
[03:52.28]And the queers and the dykes 
[03:53.36]and the kids in their box-fresh Nikes
[03:54.98]Delivering rocks to the house 
[03:56.39]across the street on rusty mountain bikes
[03:58.47]
[04:00.00]Aah aah
[04:30.58]
