The Fear

This is our "Music from A Bachelor's Den"

The sound of loneliness turned up to ten

A horror soundtrack from a stagnant water-bed

And it sounds just like this

This is the sound of someone losing the plot

Making out that they're okay when they're not

You're gonna like it, but not a lot

And the chorus goes like this

Oh baby, here comes the fear again, oh

The end is near again, oh

A monkey's built a house on your back

You can't get anyone to come in the sack

And here comes another panic attack, oh

Here we go again

So now you know the words to my song

Pretty soon, you'll all be singing along

When you're sad, when you're lonely, and it all turns out wrong

When you've got the fear

And when you're no longer searching for beauty or love

Just some kind of life with the edges taken off

When you can't even define what it is that you are frightened of

This song will be here

Oh baby, here comes the fear again, oh

The end is near again, oh

If you ever get that chimp off your back

If you ever find the thing that you lack

Oh, but you know you're only having a laugh, oh

Oh, here we go again

Until the end

Until the end
