Testing Out My Vision

 

Oh, my I’m bigger
I’m bigger than you and you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance to my dad’s
Oh no! I’ve said too much!
I set it up
That’s me in my Landy
That’s me up in Durham
Testing out my vision*

Trying to have a clue
And I don’t know if I can do it
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I haven’t said enough

I heard Matt Hancock laughing
I told Boris not to sing
I think I thought I saw you smile

In the garden
I couldn’t hide my sneer
I’m choosing my confessions
Trying to keep an eye on the truth
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no, I’ve said too much
I set it up

Consider this
Consider this
The cunt of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I’ve said too much

Said enough

I heard Matt Hancock laughing
I told Boris not to sing
I think I thought I saw you smile

That was just obscene
Just obscene
