lyrics

This circular came through my door
It was square
So I complained

I followed the sign marked “nowhere”
But never got there
I complained

My red rose tattoo turned blue
I didn’t know what to do
Or who to blame
So I called up you
And I complained

And I know that dreams come true
Later, later
And the sun comes shining through
Later, later
But when the big parade
Turned the other way
I complained

I couldn’t get fit, I didn’t fit
And I felt like shit
So I complained

My rose-tinted lenses became overlaid
With visions of horror and pain
I complained

My burning questions fizzled out
Like cigarettes in the rain
I didn’t know what to do
Or who to blame
So I called up you
And I complained

And I know that dreams come true
Later, later
And the sun comes shining through
Later, later
But when the bailiffs came
On my holiday
I complained

I compromised and complied
But relations stayed strained
I complained

I watched the whole thing
But after sixty minutes
The mystery remained unexplained
I complained

I rang the emergency services
But they didn’t know what to do
Or who to blame
And said they didn’t rate my case
As an emergency anyway
So I put the phone down on them
And I called up you
And I complained

And I know that dreams come true
Later, later
And the sun comes shining through
Later, later
But when I returned to find
An empty space
Where my bicycle had been chained…
I complained

Yes, I know that dreams come true
Later, later
And the sun comes shining through
Later, later
But there are still dark days
When I lose my way
Slow down
Sit around
And complain
