DPulling the ice axe Amfrom my leg, I Cstaggered on
FSpindrift Dstinging my remaining Ameye C F
I Dfinally managed to Amreach the station
COnly to find that the Fbus replacement service had Dbroken downAm C F
After Dwondering to myself Amwhether or not it should
CActually be called a Ftrain replacement service
I Dwalked out onto the Amconcourse
And Cnoticed the giant Fscreen seemed to have been Dtampered with
AmProbably by a Cjunior employeeF.
DDisgruntled comAmmuters were being regCaled with some dismal TVFM
InDvolving a tug-of-love Amcustody battleC;
FStockard Channing Dheld sway.Am C F D Am C F
DDown in the High Street Amsomebody careered out of CBoots
Without due Fcare or attention
I Dsuggest that they Amlearn some pedestrian Cetiquette
FI.e. sidle Dout of the store gingerlAmy - Cembrace the Fmargin.D Am C F
DFat kids with Amsausage rolls, Cpoor sods condFucting polls.D Am C F
There's a Dman with a mullet going Ammad with a mallet in CMilletsF. D Am C F
DI try to put everything into Amperspective,
CSet it against the scale of human Fsuffering
DAnd I thought of the MuAmgabe government
And the Cchildren of the Calcutta Frailways
DThis works for a Amwhile but then I enCcounter Primark FFM
DOverhead a Amrainbow apCpears F- in black and Ewhite.

DI got a letter from AmStringy Bob
C"Still on suicide waFtch, screws not happy.
DSpotted a Marsh FritAmillary during AssociCation
Was Froundly ignored;D what news you'&AmquoCt;F
DI felt sorry for himAm
He'd only been locked up for Cpublic nuisance ofFfences
DOne of which saw him beachAmcombing the Dee EstuaCry
Found a dead Fwading bird, Dtook it home, Amparcelled it up
And Csent it off to the rubber-faced Firritant Phil Cool
DWith a note inside which Amread: &Cquot;Is this your SanderFlinDg'Am&quCotF;
DAnother time saw him Amanswering an advert in the Cmusic pressF
D"Keyboard playeAmr requirCed - DoFors, Floyd, etc.
DMust be committedAm; no time wasteCrs&Fquot; - you can guessD theAm reCstF.
DI'd always imAmagined he would simply wander Coff some day into the Fhills
DTo be found months Amlater, his carcass Cstripped by homeless Fdogs
His Dexposed skull a Amperch for the quartering CcrowF D Am C F
I Dfolded away the letter and Amput it in my inside CpocketF
