[Verse 1]
Firstly there’s a spanner in here
Secondly it has the right of way, YES!
And something else is missing
Sometimes sorted out and wrapped up straight away

Nothing by comparison puts thoughts straight in my mind
As I comfort myself with the will to be unkind

[Chorus]
Goes the way of every day
To hell with uncle, I...

[Verse 2]
Mr. Technique’s doing well
And he stands around in poses just like this...
But when I gets to thinking
It seems better to betray me with a kiss

We will inform you from day to day
Mr. Technique’s is much a better way

(A CHANGE IN CIRCUMSTANCES)
(Mr. Walmesley spits...) "Forget responsibilities"
(and I say) "and showbiz personalities??"
HA!
[Chorus]
Goes the way of every day
To hell with uncle, I know I'm wrong
It must be all this eating in bed, tell me when it’s over
A spider is crawling up and eating in bed

(Catch this, in a minute)

[Bridge]
No-one can see or say or do
What no-one wants or not to do
It’s scary to be that way
So I'll make use of my body

I’ll be round with the tarring can
And stand with the standard man
Who paints us inseparable
But should I break my fall?

[Instrumental]

[Pre-Chorus]
In every cry of every Man
The mind-forg’d manacles I hear

[Chorus]
Goes the way of every day
To hell with uncle, I know I'm wrong
It must be all this eating in bed, tell me when it’s over
A spider is crawling up and
Goes the way of every day
To hell with uncle, I know I'm wrong
It must be all this eating in bed, tell me when it’s over
A spider is crawling up and eating in bed

[Outro]
No-one can see or say or do
What no-one wants or not to do
It’s scary to be that way
I'll make use of my body

The woman with the clap takes me round to the back
To the man with the crocodile smile
Who scares me to my hands and knees
But should I break my fall?
