The Beta Band

Round The Bend

I'm going totally round the bend

I don't wanna see my friends

I don't wanna see my mad friend

Cause he's driving me insane

I don't wanna see my friends

I'm going totally round the bend

Earlier on today I tried to walk down the street

But my feet kept slipping on the pavement

I found myself at ninety degrees to the rest of the world

It's not much fun you take it from me

I'm not having too good a time

There's people worse off than me,

Don't think I don't realise that but

I'm going round the bend again the last thing I wanna do

Is see my friends again

I'm going quietly round the bend again

I try to function as a normal human being

I washed my car earlier on this evening

And now I'm trying to get it together

To cook a little meal

Before I go for a drink with my friends

But I got no food I got no time to go to the supermarket

It's not that I couldn't make time

It's more that I get confused when I get there

People walking past, see the green tray outside

They see a nice little flat imagine a person inside

He's having a great old time

Well I wish I was having a greater time

Than they could possibly imagine that I'm having

All I wanna do is go far away and see things I've never seen before

I like the pyramids they weren't built in a day y'know

? pyramids don't fit the equation

But I'm so paranoid I can't even make it to the supermarket

Let alone go to Egypt and see my favourite pyramid

I go round to Robin's and try and eat some food there

Sometimes its better if you're in the company of a man

He's just said he's had a glass of red wine

So why am I had mine

I listened to The Beach Boys just a minute ago, Wild Honey

It's not the best album but its still pretty good

They've got some funny little love songs on there

It's not really a Brian's production

So its probably not as good as something like Pet Sounds

I'm going totally round the bend

Don't wanna see my friends again

I just wanna be left alone

And never bothered ever again

Never again, ever again

Ever again
