The Fortnight Saga

Business as usual at the harmony home

Up for the weekend to see my father

So I'm the one beneath the unturned stone

I begin the ritual fortnight saga

Get in the cab, bags packed with clothes

Cassette player, the jungle of hose

A pair of shoes for walking in

Out of the cab, the doorbell rings

Hungover greetings from the man in my life

A hug, a kiss, and a mug by the fire

He says I should need a woman I might like

I drop my bags and walk right by her

Get in the bath, bubbles up high

Cassette player plays in the night

She's at the door, wants to come in

I'm in the bath, I loudly sing

Business as usual at the harmony home

I can't believe it how time flies

I'm waving
