PC Immi got me itchin for a bitchin

Rx medi gimme a prescription

Something to calm the nerves

Before I start-a-pitchin

My Pa…My knight in shining armor

We’re blood we’re family

Intertwined summer sands

And you wanna tear us apart

For Christ sake you’re making a mistake

This is his mother’s resting place

And his father lives alone at 95

And the heart deserves the right

To be in two places can’t you see

Unconditionally forever and a day

Paid his taxes, paid what’s due

Won software design awards

Just to name a few

Yeah his contribution

It’s worthy of a standing ovation

But to you n you

Does it even ring a bell?

Ding dong let me remind you

That this is his home too

He paved the path n built a life

And this is where we all grew

Brother sister me

Uncle cousins and their kids too

But being an ex pat off he flew

Cause you do whatchya gotta do

And go where the crust aint burnt

But he always comes back

Italian boots and a British rucksack

His wife has a daughter here too

Who’s married True Blue

And they have baby Noah too.

But they’re caught up in a catch 22

In fact you’re sending her back

Cause you mute the voice with your multi choice

Impossible questions n sterile rejection

Fuckn authority n red ink

Stamping access denied on genuine applications

They didn’t skip the queue

But they’re jumpin through your hoops

While you’re munchin on ur fruit loops

Yeah who decides who gets to stay

And who’s gotta go?

So if they gotta go, I think i’ll go too

Cause It Aint True Blue

And it doesn’t feel like home

Sweet Despair

You there didn’t you swear with only time enough to care

Left diamonds in the air before you pulled the lair

That taste of paradise still lingers on without you gone

But it’s a lonely place with a silent taste

Inside where you reside

Wrestling fears over so many years

Trenched through the mud drenched from above

With butterflied blood and suds of love

It’s never too late to see we burn alive

Big red heart banging at the door

Can’t fight it anymore

Thanks for slapping the hide and for the ride

Thanks for the healing and for not revealing

Thanks for the blue without a clue

Thank you for the feeling of Sweet Despair
