[Verse 2] In the summer of fifty-eight when innocence shattered and broke The tree, the egg, the nest, the breast, the yolk When those thieving flames took my Grandad from my Pa And ever since then we've been mending all those scars [Chorus} But the bandages and ointments ain’t done yet Still waking up with Coffee, Methadone and Cigarettes [Verse 3] That broken bird somehow grew With the seven brothers and sisters moved from the country to the zoo Between the legacy visits and the boarding schools Yes he learned to dodge the books and he learned to dodge the fools [Chorus} Said he made mistakes but lives with no regrets Still waking up with Coffee, Methadone and Cigarettes INSTRUMENTAL: (VERSE & CHORUS - Have not figured this out, really) [Verse 4] Grandma on Sunday, used to eat the chicken neck She said she wasn't hungry and the kids could have the rest When those kids grew they learnt what she'd done She would go hungry for all of them, she'd go hungry for everyone [Chorus] And now she's gone and it's hell in the hand basket He’s still waking up with Coffee, Methadone and Cigarettes [Verse 1] See my old man’s got a broken heart Got a leaky valve and aneurysm, but you - you trace it back to the start When that big ol' fire came towards Nannup town That greedy thing burned more than the bush down [Outro] You can bury the dead and try to forget You can bury the dead and try to live with no regrets You can bury the dead and it's all gone to shit Still waking up with Coffee, Methadone and Cigarettes And now she's gone and it's hell in the hand basket You’re still waking up to Coffee, Methadone and Cigarettes
