It's easy to dismiss the 'what's it all about' crowd.
There is no doubt. it's this, here, now.
So you work it out, overfeed the cat.
And the plants are dry and they need to drink.
So you do your best. and you flood the sink.
Sit down in the kitchen and cry.
Now the universe left you for a runners lap.
It feels like home when it comes crashing back.
How you've worked it out |
All along the range all along the range
