Fabulous Shelving (original song - by Simon Reed)

It's okay, if somewhat prickly.

Sometimes I crawl
Sometimes I’m pretty sure
That I could fly away

Sometimes I bawl
Sometimes I sit and smile
From dawn till dusk for days

Are you still here?
If so
Then would you kindly tell me why

There is no good
That I have found from under ground
Up to the sky

But don’t let anything I say
Change anything inside your head
Or even in the place that sends you
Your instructions in your bed

And do not even hum along
You’ll be complicit in this ruse
And is there any point in winning
When eventually you’ll lose

Sometimes I hope
And others fantasise about
What I could do with rope

Sometimes I sing
And others sit and worry
About attention it might bring

Are you still here?
If so
Then would you kindly tell me why

There is no good
That I have found from under ground
Up to the sky

But don’t let anything I say
Change anything inside your head
Or even in the place that sends you
Your instructions in your bed

And do not even hum along
You’ll be complicit in this ruse
And is there any point in winning
When eventually you’ll lose
