lyrics

Life’s gone just a little bit pear shaped,
Of late but that’s ok it fits nicely in my hand,
I’ll just give it a squeeze and feel the juice flow,
All over my clean clothes it won’t stain though,
Cos here comes a little bit of rain just in time to wash it off,

Perhaps these lyrics have got a little bit lost so what I’m trying to say is,

Hold on my brother,
Hold on my sister,
This life can taste bitter,
But just start diggin’ and we’ll find a little pocket of hope.

THere’s a little carrot dangling in front of your eyes,
But it’s time to be wise look through the opaque disguise,
And find a sharp blade and dice it up,
Cos you should really be grabbing what you came here for,
That big old shelf on the wall,
Though you doubt it, it holds all you’ll ever really need.

Perhaps the meanings got a little bit lost so now I’ll say it straight,

Hold on my brother,
Hold on my sister,
This life can taste bitter,
But just start diggin’ and we’ll find a little pocket of hope.
