lyrics

Propped up on blocks it’s been a long time since I had any wheels
Undergrowth perimeter I know exactly how it feels
Rust stains and streaks running down my sides
At least I got an ocean view moving with the tides
Sitting forlorn at dawn I haven’t got any cargo
Going nowhere fast you know I’m not a winnie bagoe
My wallpaper’s faded and my carpet smells like piss
Curtains ripped and drawn it’s all hit and miss

I’ve heard things - best I dare not speak
I’ve seen things - best I do not share
I’ve thought things - I can not take back
I’ve done things - For which I fear

Windowsills scattered with all manner of things
Feels like I’ve seen a lot more winters than I have springs
Broken dirty mattress sodden with the stench
Gas leaking silently from the cylinder underneath the bench
Don’t know why they brought you here or why you came back
Got something to show you hidden in a sack
Come into the caravan the last thing you heard them say
Come along we’re going on a long holiday
