There is silence in the canyon where the cannon used to thunder, is there time to reconsider before I finally go under,
the answer's not forthcoming and the time is running out as I look back at it all and still don't know what it's about.

I shall eat chips and fish and peas
and go to bed at whatever time I please
get the operation that fixes up my knees,

She's not listening.
