Lyrics for A Little Something

Debt collectors chasing me up in turn for wasting your luck I've got a fear of getting somewhere and where I just don't know Bad luck getting me down A gathering of soulless clowns I've got myself a habit I'm never gonna kick but I can see where its gonna end When I was young I was taught a little song I only ever sing it when things are going horribly wrong It goes take a tip top leaf from the jaiger meister plant, a baby hyena and an olive branch stick it all in a fruit blender With some mottos and some lovers and a vintage fender And just to make sure you never wake up from 25 years in an office job other people read But if I get a little something I can sleep Other people read But I just need a little something to wear to sleep Other people read But if I get a little something I can sleep She'd made it perfectly clear she didn't want me anywhere near an empty flat with the heater full on so why do i feel so cold? I keep expecting her to walk through the door the old coat not on the floor I've last read a beautiful thing in this book I think that I might just turn in when I was young I was taught a little song which I only ever use when things are going horribly wrong I need two soft arms to hold me tight from the demons that haunt me in the middle of the night beautiful grass and a bottle of light I can't go to sleep in the dark this pesky tape recorder tried to sleep in the light cause you never ever know how you're gonna get flown I've gone to sleep ...weren't/ wear it in bed I keep it inside my head other people read I just need a little something to make me sleep other people read but if I get my little something I can sleep
