Paked in the Kitchen
by Tony McGirr
Oh! I am sitting tonight in a cold lonely place
Where once I felt wanted and loved
My heart it feels sad
But I keep a brave face
From the circle of family I'm shunned
I feel hurt,I feel lost
As I count up the cost
My feelings are bitter I fear
For the first Time in life
I've been hurt by the wife
The one I love dear
The TV annoys me
The programmes are bad
Where once I felt wanted and loved
My heart it feels sad
But I keep a brave face
From the circle of family I'm shunned
I feel hurt,I feel lost
As I count up the cost
My feelings are bitter I fear
For the first Time in life
I've been hurt by the wife
The one I love dear
The TV annoys me
The programmes are bad
(Written on 3rd October 1975)
The family all sit in the dark
And they watch "Beryls Lot"
with their eyes all aglow
Whilst I in the kitchen must park!
I'm parked in the kitchen to pass away time
I've picked up an old biro pen
An old piece of paper I've gotten as well
and my thoughts I've put down in this rhyme
I know my thoughts ramble
I know I feel blue
I know I'll get over it too
For when all's said and done
Life is meant to be fun
So the TV I'll now go and view!
And they watch "Beryls Lot"
with their eyes all aglow
Whilst I in the kitchen must park!
I'm parked in the kitchen to pass away time
I've picked up an old biro pen
An old piece of paper I've gotten as well
and my thoughts I've put down in this rhyme
I know my thoughts ramble
I know I feel blue
I know I'll get over it too
For when all's said and done
Life is meant to be fun
So the TV I'll now go and view!
