At the time,
I knew it was my fault
When dinner wasn't right
And you threw it across the room
...
I woke first, studied you, smiled,
Then quietly drew the curtains
To let the eager sunshine in
That was rapping on the window,
...
Fireworked.
Another family feeling the bang
While one just sees the glitter.
Course I'll put the bins out,
...
If your crush said to my crush,
'Let's meet and have a chat',
We'd be reduced to atoms,
And the Earth would be razed flat.
...
Now the laughter's died
And the hand-sore rows empty
Like popcorn filled sheep,
He hurries damply to his father's father's van
...
Absence makes the heart grow fonder,
If they're coming back.
More than that makes it sadder,
And lonelier and older,
...
November, with its frost and smells,
Brings fond memories flooding back,
Of the last bonfire party at my grandma's,
Before she passed away.
...
Between owl and sparrow time,
But you couldn't wait.
Nothing moves except us and our shadows
In our hushed and private bubble,
...
Ey up, Ray, can y'ear scraitin?
Summat's 'appnin in yon stan'in.
'Say a gleg throw th'ole 'ere.
'Utch up, Yoth an' gi'e ower shovin'
...
