The Wombats - How to Pack Your Bags and Leave lyrics
[The Wombats - How to Pack Your Bags and Leave lyrics]
I came downstairs one new years day
As scatty as a westcoast mainline train
And you said something that
I can still remember
Your specs come off and the lights dim down
The floral wallpaper turns a vomit brown
And you look at me with
Distain beyond my comprehension
You said you were ashamed
Its not paranoia when they're after you
Its a ball and chain that should
Not be attached to me
Why do we fight like kids
In a school lunch queue
When you're my Dad and i am 23 i am 23
This is how to pack your bags and leave
Sticks and stones wreck
But it's the names that keep on breaking me
I can't believe my luck
There's an 815 to Euston
I hope the london fog swallows me up
You could be right and it
Could be me to blame
But how come you sat me down
Dressed me like a clown
You said you were ashamed
This is how to pack your bags and leave
Sticks and stones wreck
But it's the names that keep on breaking me
So if this will make Mum and Dad proud
Then I'm quite happy to take plan B
As scatty as a westcoast mainline train
And you said something that
I can still remember
Your specs come off and the lights dim down
The floral wallpaper turns a vomit brown
And you look at me with
Distain beyond my comprehension
You said you were ashamed
Its not paranoia when they're after you
Its a ball and chain that should
Not be attached to me
Why do we fight like kids
In a school lunch queue
When you're my Dad and i am 23 i am 23
This is how to pack your bags and leave
Sticks and stones wreck
But it's the names that keep on breaking me
I can't believe my luck
There's an 815 to Euston
I hope the london fog swallows me up
You could be right and it
Could be me to blame
But how come you sat me down
Dressed me like a clown
You said you were ashamed
This is how to pack your bags and leave
Sticks and stones wreck
But it's the names that keep on breaking me
So if this will make Mum and Dad proud
Then I'm quite happy to take plan B
