cardiacs – i’m eating in bed [surbiton] lyrics

i’m eating in bed [surbiton] lyrics
[tim’s prattle]
a friend of mine…
puffed up
she puffed up
almost twice her normal size
it was quite funny, really
a great, skinny, went all greyer
and out puffed little rings of steam
like, right from a chain
one day, she swelled up, even bigger
and she managed to swell up, even bigger, again
and then this big, big, pop, and out jumped a duck!
from her tummy!
it opened its beak, and it said:
“there’s a sign outside your house that says everybody’s happy!
well i, for one, am most certainly not!”
this made my friend itch, and she started to scratch
like when i itch, i scratch
like when you itch, you…
like when you’ve been
ea+ting+in+bed

[verse 1]
firstly there’s a spanner in here
secondly it has the right of way, uh huh
and something else is missing
sometimes sorted out and wrapped up straight away
nothing by comparison puts thoughts straight in my mind
as i comfort myself with the will to be unkind
[chorus]
goes the way of every day
to h+ll with uncle, i…

[verse 2]
mr. technique’s doing well
and he stands around in poses just like this
but when i gets to thinking it seems
better to betray me with a kiss
we will inform you upon day to day
mr. technique’s is a much better way

[bridge]
no+one can see or say or do what
no+one wants or not to do
it’s scary to be that way
i’ll make use of my body
i’ll be round with the tarring can
and stand with the standard man
who paints us inseparable
but should i break my fall?
[instrumental]

[pre+chorus]
in every cry of every man
the mind+forg’d manacles i hear

[chorus]
goes the way of every day
to h+ll with uncle
i know i’m wrong (goes the way of every day)
it must be all this (to h+ll with uncle)
eating in bed, tell me when it’s over (i know i’m wrong)
a spider is crawling up and (it must be all this)
goes the way of every day (eating in bed)
to h+ll with uncle
i know i’m wrong (goes the way of every day)
it must be all this (to h+ll with uncle)
eating in bed, tell me when it’s over (i know i’m wrong)
a spider is crawling up and (it must be all this)
(eating in bed)

[outro]
no+one can see or say or do
what no+one wants or not to do
it’s scary to be that way
i’ll make use of my body
the woman with the clap takes me round to the back
to the man with the crocodile smile, who
scares
me to my hands and
knees but should i break my
fall?
