Letra

[Verse 1]
Over the garden, my piano floats with a bum note
Followed by lamps, bedclothes, potplants
Flatscreen TV, your vast CD collection
And carrier-bags distended with crockery
And now we're just waiting for the phone call from our solicitor
[Verse 2]
I grew up on Whitebridge estate
Our house backed right onto the old tramway
The smell of freshly-baked oaties
Curls like a slow-worm through my memories
Brand-new skateboard echoing along the ginnel
Staying up late to watch the England Germany semi-final
The long summers my brother and me
Passed fishing in the quarry and climbing trees
Great cities of LEGO
Sprawled across the darkened plain of the garage floor
[Verse 3]
Blasting Erasure 'Blue Savannah' we pull onto the drive
Our headlights like dancing sprites reflect in the porch window
The previous occupant, a retired civil engineer and recent widower
Has left us a pressie in the fridge, a giant bottle of bubbly
[Verse 4]
Things started to get pretty bad
When Nissan made my Dad redundant
All he'd do was watch telly
Sinking lagers steadily
Tempers boiled, dinners spoiled
Gladiators versus Noel's House Party
[Verse 5]
Having a curry on crossed legs surrounded by boxes
We take a drunken selfie and Whatsapp it to your family
Then I give myself a headache blowing up the airbed for our first sleep
Jolted awake, the central heating groans, "Where am I?"
[Verse 6]
I'm up in the loft playing Doom
There's an awful crashing and banging coming from the living room
I should be running down the stairs
But I just sit frozen to my chair
Dad's shouting, "I can't take it anymore!"
Then he's vanished in the blink of a slamming door
[Verse 7]
I spent the morning traipsing round Ikea and B&Q
Hammers and nails, a curtain rail, pans, mugs, sink-plugs
And a Persian rug
Then we had our appointment with the midwife
[Outro]
And here we are painting the little bedroom
It won't be long till the baby arrives
