The Specials

All Gone Wrong

So what's the point of thinking deep

I bite my nails and I'm losing sleep

Goes round and round and will never halt

It's all gone wrong and it's all my fault

I used the sugar when I needed salt

Things ain't cooking for me, as you see

I need a laugh so I take a drink

Ain't it strange how they start to shrink

I swig a river and I cry a lake

It's all gone wrong and it's my mistake

I wanted tremor but I got earthquake

Things ain't going my way, not today

I'm sitting on a one way train

You say I'm heading for an early grave

There goes anxiety my favorite station

And here comes panic and palpitation

I get frustrated 'cos I need a break

But when it comes along you know I'll take

I've never eaten from the hand of fate

It's all gone wrong but it's not too late

I needed love but all I got was hate

Things ain't down to a tee, believe me

I'm sitting on a one way train

You say I'm heading for an early grave

There goes anxiety my favorite station

And here comes panic and palpitation

I saw the doctor 'cos I'm feeling stress

"Hop on the couch" he said, "and get undressed"

He shook his head and said "the futures bleak"

It's getting worse and I ain't hit my peak

I want to shout but I can't even speak

Things can't get any worse, where's the hearse?
