Sitting at the old kitchen table 
Peace and health and dreams 
Stretching out in the darkness 
Mother’s up the stairs with her ageing new boyfriend 
Cathy’s staying in to make sure nothing happens 
All aboard the freak parade 
I cover up my head and pray 
I’m praying for the light 
Down amongst the old city chambers 
Men in frocks debate all the policy changes 
Everybody bet on the boom and got busted 
Everybody bet and in the government trusted 
Grubby little red MP 
Yellow flapping hopelessly
 
Tory like the cat with the cream 
Tory like the cat with the cream 
I studied you in history 
I studied in the library 
In days of old when knights were bold 
They’d settle it with sword and shield 
In days of old when knights were bold 
It’s settled by the king 
 
Praying for a friend is contagious
Specially when it comes at the old kitchen table
Listening for the swoosh of his quickening paces
Watching for the smile on the bravest of faces
How I wish you’d read to me
Verses rich in swallows and trees
Get me though the night 
 
Waiting at the old kitchen table
Listening for my code listening for my instructions
Surely now I’m here, I am destined for greatness
I want to be the Queen pulling kids out of rivers
All aboard the freak parade
I cover up my head and pray
 
Praying for the cat with the cream 
Praying for the cat with the cream 
I studied you in history 
I studied in the library 
In days of old when knights were bold 
They’d settle it with sword and shield 
In days of old when knights were bold 
It’s settled by the king
It’s settled by the king
It’s settled by the king
It’s settled by the king
