The palm oil industry
ruining it for you and
ruining it for me
them sheikhs ain't none too happy
about it either.

Everything's destruction
try your hand at seduction,
error 69
malfunction
greased lightning ain't slick enough
and I m not quick enough
thinks
I'll pack up my stuff and
be on my way,

that is what happens on Wednesday,
tomorrow's that other day that they
spoke of in velvet tones
or was it in velvet trousers?
either way
it's that other day
and if Freud had his way
it'd be Mother's day.

I'm still jogging on
trying to be at one
but
often at sixes and sevens.
