Twenty eight with an aching back
Already a crocked neck.
A smile only for those who know
How to bring it out of me.
What the hell happened.
I used to be crazy.
Spend all my time
In the garden,
Football,
Dog running by my side.
Now I sweat in tubes
Terminating in Edgware.
The next stop is Euston Bank branch.
Which is good.
I know what's coming.
Just a few stops then home.
Home to my wife, just married.
I am still crazy.
I don't need the garden,
Though I do miss the dog!
I understand the tube again.
I am who I am.
I go home to the girl
Who brings the smile out of me.
