I'm Fine

I feel fine, I feel fine

yeah great, just fine,

Everyone else is happy,

Whilst I'm stuck in my own mind.

There's ppl talking over there,

And ppl chatting on the chair,

But I don't have anything to say,

So I stand by the stairs.

Ppl are loving this day,

Rain, hot then, champagne spray.

I'd love to give a speech,

But I wouldn't know what to say.

There's Aunties n Uncles all telling me to get better,

I don't think they get it. I'll have to leave them a letter,

So I drift to the kitchen, and drink by myself,

Then someone comes in n nicks the last Stella from the shelf.

I really can't stand talking, crap n chit chat,

Babies n marriage, what do I know of that,

So I go upstairs, to my old room in the house.

And lay down on the bed, go to sleep, quiet as a mouse.
