Happy Slapping - Cathy Davey

[00:00.00]
[00:22.52]When you're alone do you worry about me
[00:27.48]When I'm alone all I do is worry, worry worry worry
[00:32.44]Worry 'bout a heart attack,
[00:35.31]wonderin' who's got your back
[00:37.38]If you had a healthy lunch,
[00:39.88]if somebody spiked your punch
[00:42.29]Do the boys take care of you,
[00:44.63]or do they leave you home to brew
[00:47.44]Yeah
[00:50.47]Doin' fine without you
[00:54.27]
[01:02.09]When you're alone do you sit and weep
[01:06.80]Or do you keep the fire lit with photographs of you and me
[01:11.89]Is the heaviness letting up,
[01:14.33]or do you feel like giving up
[01:16.74]And if you gave up what exactly,
[01:19.25]what exactly would it mean
[01:21.82]Overflowing septic tanks and avoiding all the bins
[01:26.08]'Till somebody says
[01:28.04]"I knew the girl, she kept a tidy flat
[01:30.89]But now the garden's full of rats,
[01:33.58]I know she used to sing
[01:35.49]But now she talks to buildings
[01:39.55]She's doin' swell without you"
[01:43.61]
[01:51.03]When you go out,
[01:53.13]do you dread coming home
[01:55.50]To an empty house and stale bread and nobody to warm your bed
[02:00.77]Does it make you scared to die,
[02:03.07] 'cause that's what keeps me up at night
[02:05.74]Lying stiff for several days with nobody there to say
[02:10.80]"wake up honey or are you dead"
[02:14.25]And that keeps running through my head
[02:17.95]
[02:20.61]Doin' sweet without you
[02:23.53]
[02:46.95]When you wake up do you get a fright,
[02:51.37]When suddenly you remember you no longer have a life
[02:55.78]'Cause it scares the **** right out of me
[02:58.90]An avalanche of memories come raging like a ***** on heat
[03:02.98]So I don't stay in bed soon as I wake
[03:07.11]I flee the room say "life is great"
[03:09.43]Stick on the radio and laugh
[03:11.98]and when the prime time jokes pretend
[03:14.49]that they relate to me
[03:16.27]As if I'm not detached or lonely
[03:18.71]or is that how we all feel
[03:21.23]and eating crap is how we deal
[03:23.48]with life and all it's splendid trappings
[03:26.33]Robbery and happy slapping
[03:28.84]Yeah
[03:31.50]Doin' sweet without you
[03:35.32]Doin' swell without you
[03:46.70]
