He’s a somewhere person rewinding
He lives upstairs away from the fresh air
In the set of a sitcom
Michael Afternoon at half past 3
Nervous breakdown then daytime TV
During his youth he made the local news
When half his family perished in a
sarcastic disaster out at sea
Half a bag of sugar’s what he needs
And then he’s overwhelmed
with all these thoughts that he’s got a disease
Spends most the time just powered by his sleep
Michael walks through rainclouds happily
Accepts their inevitability
Needs your spare change, thought he’d already paid
Now his pocket’s full of jam, needs to buy a ticket
to jump off the ferry
Half a bag of sugar’s what he needs
He’s hanging upside down over a viaduct of memories
He’s on the precipice
of a stormy life he thought he’d never see
He kind of knows it now
that nothing will turn out just like he needs
And he can’t understand
and turned his back on all reality
He feels it right deep down That
this wasn’t his life was meant to be
