I woke up this morning everything was gone.
By half past ten my head was going ding-dong.
Ringing like a bell from your head down to my toes,
Like a voice telling you there was something I should know.
Last night I was flying but today I´m so low
Ain't it times like these make me wonder if you'll ever know
The meaning of things as they appear to the others:
Wives, husbands, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers.
I wish you didn't function,
And I wish you didn't think
Beyond the next paycheck and the next little drink'
Well you do so make up my mind to go on,'cos
When I woke up this morning everything I had was gone.
