the rocking chair

here i walk

here i walk

looking for an angel's wings in the den of the hawk

here i am

here i am

with a choice between an also ran and a sunbed tan

and you thought you'd found your own little look

how i misjudged

how i mistook

and you thought you'd found the style of your hair

i guess tonight i'll take

i'll take these troubles to

the rocking chair

so i'll take these high-heeled shoes

and yes i'll take these traditional views

i'll take this deep despair

of a 30 year old square

to the rocking chair

here i sit

here i sit

looking for a warming smile in a house of cold wit

here i stand

here i stand

torn between the balding drunk and no man's land

and they'll tell you when you've reached your peak

where the wolf-whistle rung there's a deafening shriek

blowing kisses into thin air

i guess tonight i'll take

i'll take these troubles to

the rocking chair

so i'll take this awkward stance

and i'll take this sexless dance

i'll take this deep despair of a 30 year old square

to the rocking chair

am i skinny? a shade too fat?

mmmm.my friend the cat knows all about that

just a little sad

mmmm.my friend the cat knows all about that

am i skinny?

a shade too fat?

my friend the cat knows all about that
