The boiler’s broken down again
You’ve had a parking fine
The kids are playing up at school
You’ve spilt a glass of wine
You’ve had a scam on Instagram
Your neighbour is a prick
You’ve missed your latest deadline…
and the cat has just been sick.
The rent is going up again
The car insurance too
You've snagged your brand new jacket
And you think you have the flu
The boiler man has not shown up
(He said that he’d be quick)
You’ve tripped and hurt your ankle…
and the cat has just been sick.
You’re chasing up a payment
That’s gone missing in the post
The milk has just turned sour
And you’ve gone and burnt the toast
You’ve prayed to God to help you out
It hasn’t done the trick
You’re drowning in disorder…
and the cat has just been sick.
