Squit squit

Squat squat

When my parents used to sing me to sleep

Thos were the days that held the hopes of the mountain-tops

Listen, friends

I only will tell you once

This is the chance to make of you what you really want to make of yourself

Why is it that when we are really who we are we end up being who we never

wanted to be?

Twice over I’ve found myself in the centre of a dirty carpark

I was smelly and a little bit ill

Mainly from a dodgy kebab I bought from the cornershop of my heart

Listen, friends

I only will tell you once

This is the chance to make of you what you really want to make of yourself

Why is it that when we are really who we are we end up being who we never

wanted to be?

All the same, I will be the one to cook you squid

And I don’t even like squid

If that’s not love

I don’t know what is

Except for a dog who carefully avoids muddy puddles
