Wonderful Distraction
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I watch repeated wildlife shows to keep my mind ticking
but someone's _________ around my throat and watch my carcass disintegrate
I bought a book of Churchill quotes and i thought it might be interesting
At least it diverts attention from the things that we all know we should say
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
Our friends keep vanishing for the jobs in the city
Then re-appear as vacant ghosts with titles that no one understands
I bought a pair of blinkers from a market off the high street
They tunnel my vision, I hope my thoughts don't stray off topic again
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
Keep your feet grounded, keep your feet grounded
This is not the time for grandios(?)
Keep your lips moving, keep your lips moving
Don't let your head spoil the flow
Keep that arm shaking, keep that arm shaking
This is great _____________________ you know
Keep the drinks coming, keep the drinks coming
Climb on that ladder and go
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
What a wonderful, distraction you are
