People Who Go Ta-dah!

Welcome to my show

It’s all packed in here like an overstuffed carry-on

Life is a carry-on my best friend shrieked

Let’s get shit going here before we all peak

Welcome to my world

It’s been turning on its axis half a century or more

When the storm clouds gather my hands begin to wring

When simplicity is all, then my heart begins to sing

Don’t say ‘I’ve got this’ when you haven’t

Don’t say ‘You did that’ when you didn’t

People are cool but they push too far

And I won’t do people who go ta-dah!

Welcome to today

It’s all marked out like a botched-up bank job

The liars and the takers, unelected, overheard

The top law breakers, unaffected, undeterred

Welcome to the feast

The Jacobs and the jackals in their Jermyn Street suits

The fakers attack us in their double-zip boots

Rule makers, chat hackers, ripping up the roots

Don’t say ‘I’ve got this’ when you haven’t

Don’t say ‘You did that’ when you didn’t

People are cool but they push too far

And I won’t do people who go ta-dah!

When folks don’t really speak what’s written on their face

And they don’t get the art of filling up a space

With just a little bit of room, a hundred more

So I stand with my foot in the open door

I’m outta here

Welcome to my show

It’s all packed in here like an overstuffed carry-on

Life is a carry-on my best friend shrieked

Let’s get shit going here before we all peak

Don’t say ‘I’ve got this’ when you haven’t

Don’t say ‘You did that’ when you didn’t

People are cool but they push too far

And I won’t do people who go ta-dah!
