How Did It Come to This
Just the other day somebody said to me'Hey, maybe you're just slightly schizophrenicAnd a little out of reach, my friend'I said 'Yes, that's partly true'But jokes aside, I can explainIt's just my way of keeping trackWith living on this planetNow then
Have you turned on your TVHave you seen realityHave you seen the programmeThat you've spent your whole life looking forThere's a girl in Camden townIndecision makes her frownWhich dress would she wear todayAnd which way should she smile at me
How did it come to thisHow did it ever come to this
All the noises and all these lightsAll these talking through the nightsAll these expectation nowIt's making me neuroticTell me, have you seen your face beforeI forgot to say 'hello'Thought I'd make it clear nowThat I've always been a smiler, tell me
How did it come to thisHow did it ever come to thisHow did it come to thisHow did it ever come to this
Sometimes it's like I'm a world awaySometimes I feel a world away
Just the other day somebody said to me'Hey maybe you are oh so slightly OCDA little out of reach, my friend'I said 'yes, that's partly true'But, jokes aside, please stay with meIt's just my way of compartmentalising all the things I see
