Sixes & Sevens

from The Long Way Round by Gronk

lyrics

I live in a basement that’s starting to flood
The sweet peas are dying, they’re covered in mud
It costs a small fortune to get anywhere
My beard has gone ginger, I think I’m losing my hair
My friends are all lawyers and I never see ‘em
I feel like an exhibit in a run-down museum

I’m at sixes and sevens, don’t feel too well
One day I’m in Heaven, the next I’m in London
Sixes and sevens, I’m starting to smell
Can’t get a job ‘cause I feel so redundant
So don’t take the mickey babe, don’t take the piss
Because there’s nobody else in the world who can stop me feeling like this

Took off from London, touched down in the States
Made it over to Newark but my connection was late
Six hours in the airport bar covered in grease
Drinking Sam Adams, eating nachos and cheese
I grabbed the stewardess when my plane finally came
And said “Just get me to Pine Island ‘cause I’m going insane”

I’m at sixes and sevens, don’t feel too well
One day I’m in Heaven, the next I’m in London
Sixes and sevens, I’m starting to smell
Can’t get a job, I feel so redundant
So bring me a smile baby, bring me a kiss
‘Cause you’re the only one in the world who can stop me feeling like
Feeling like this ...
