The Year of The Dog

lyrics

Twelve years ago I was sat on my sofa
High on the fumes of unemployment
Even spent a week doing a sudoku
You looked at me like I was having a breakdown
Even though I know that change is hard
All the things that have happened to me since then
Remind me it’s not impossible
Only a terrible ballache
Failure is an option too
That might not be right for you?
Hate the players, game and rules
Even-handed to the last
Dozen years is not so long
On the scale of an aeon
Geological time moves on
Ever more reasons to celebrate!

(Find a friend, call him “Al”
Thick and thin, so loyal
He’s a very really pal
Easily your favourite person

To deal with existential pangs
He’s a friend with several fangs
Endless fun and infinite play
You and he can run away)
