How did I get here so fast?
Long, long
Time, time
By silver hearse

I fall asleep on the couch
And then wake lonely and afraid of the dark
Last weeks milk is left on the doorstep
Thickly curdled and smelling of yellow
No one knows I’m here for sure

How did I get here so fast?
Long, long
Time, time
By silver hearse

In my youth I was sweetness and light
Tee Pee valley was my home
There was a girl
Painted lips, painted eyes
Who held a gong in mid air?
Now I cant remember my last name
But now I can remember
Now I can remember

How did I get here so fast?
Long, long
Time, time
By silver hearse

Mothballs, knitting and Radio Two
Sing something filthy as days go by
With digestives and a mug of coco if I’m lucky
I don’t care
I’ll be dead soon
Like Grocer Jack
The garden fence will fall with rot
The roof will sag
The next generation will develop
Some one else will be cool
Some one else will be cruel
They’ll build a wind generator on my grave
And still be thrown into darkness
Hear me
My name is Harry
I use to cut the grass
There goes my death rattle
I think I am dead

How did I get here so fast?
Long, long
Time, time
By silver hearse
