Godley & Creme When Things Go Wrong
I can't sleep, I can't sleep My doctor said I've got to stay in bed A week at least, a week or three But that would drive me crazy My lawyer said my case is weak The witnesses refuse to speak And you're up against a hanging judge and jury The boss is on my back He says he feels there something lacking in the progress of my department My youngest boy, not yet thirteen Said Dad, drop out, this ain't your scene But my eldest boy just said, Dad, drop dead Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong And they rarely go right for me Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong And they rarely go right for me My mother says she's still alive Please call us up from time to time If it's not too much trouble It's for your father's sake My yoga class Said take the time to relax, relax, relax But we're dining out with the Shultzes tonight And I hate the Shultzes I never wake up in the morning `Cos I never go to sleep at night I go to bed, I take a powder Maybe tonight's the night All the cares of the day Seem to gather in a corner Like an army of ants Who are waiting for the moment when the lights go out I can't sleep, I can't sleep Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong And they rarely go right for me Oh, when things go wrong, they really go wrong And they rarely go right for me
