I missed you today and the smell of emulsion. Taking the **** like it's a full on compulsion. Safety pin, pen knife, beard long and grey. Swearing at the hammers. "I'm just a lodger here" you'd say. When the weather's damp your big toe gives you trouble. When the weather's dry, you're on stage singing bubbles. Overalls, dust sheets, sudoku and crosswords. If the traffic is bad, you'll hear a few cross words. That's just today, but as sure as I exist Every day I wake up is a day you are missed.

I missed you
I missed you today and the smell of emulsion. Taking the **** like it's a full on compulsion. Safety pin, pen knife, beard long and grey. Swearing at the hammers. "I'm just a lodger here" you'd say. When the weather's damp your big toe gives you trouble. When the weather's dry, you're on stage singing bubbles. Overalls, dust sheets, sudoku and crosswords. If the traffic is bad, you'll hear a few cross words. That's just today, but as sure as I exist Every day I wake up is a day you are missed.
