Lyrics

I'd lost the plot and roamed around

I had lost direction and wandered aimlessly

Looked in the shops and hit the town

Explored shops and the city

My head was stuffed with words and aches

My mind was filled with thoughts and pains

I felt so rough and out of shape

I felt unwell and physically out of form

The clouds puffed up like bags of sweets

Clouds resembled inflated bags of sweets

That's just my luck, I couldn't eat

Despite the opportunity, I couldn't eat

My guts were full of churning fear

I experienced intense anxiety and discomfort

With so much bull I had to clear

Dealing with a lot of nonsense that needed to be cleared

When she said stuff yourself, don't be a clown

Received advice to indulge oneself and not act foolishly

Paint your wagon and take yourself right out of town

Suggested to leave the current situation and start anew

What's this long face that keeps on

Questioning the reason for a persistent sad expression

Hanging around

A lingering sadness or gloom that won't go away


She wouldn't say, I couldn't tell

She didn't disclose the cause; I couldn't figure it out

Was this the day I'd go to hell

Contemplating if this day marked a descent into trouble

I sulked around in such a mood

Moved about in a bad mood

Until I found the one I'd screwed

Eventually found the person I had harmed

And then it came as clear as mud

The realization struck me clearly

I was the pain that boiled the blood

I was the cause of intense anger and frustration

And saw the faults where there were none

Found flaws where there were none, causing problems

Deep in the vaults where love begun

In the depths where love originated


When she said stuff yourself, don't be a clown

Reiteration of advice to indulge and not act foolishly

Paint your wagon and take yourself right out of town

Encouraged to leave and start fresh

What's this long face that keeps on

Questioning the cause of a persistent sad expression

Hanging around

A lingering sadness or gloom that won't go away

Then she said get a grip and shake this mood

Further advice to regain control and change the mood

Get a life and find yourself some attitude

Encouragement to live life with a different attitude

What's this long face that keeps on

Questioning the cause of a persistent sad expression

Hanging around

A lingering sadness or gloom that won't go away
