I'm not Walter Mitty
...and I'm not gonna shave today
and I'm not ashamed to say
"We're a Road-mash, babe".
Plastic bags get caught in trees,
plasticine between the keys;
it's a pauper's grave.
Your Mum and Dad never took to me
when I was swinging off the branches
of your family tree
and they knew my Dad did bird
'cos you told 'em right
from the start
and it's funny what attracted you considering your Old Man co-ordinates
the Neighbourhood Watch.
It's not beautiful, it's not
even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
It's not beautiful, it's not
even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
With the fate of providence,
I missed a puncher's chance
before you turned away.
Salad bags get watery,
better men in mortuaries;
the dog has had its day.
Your Mum and Dad never took to me
when I was swinging off the branches
of your family tree
and they knew my Dad did bird
'cos you told 'em right
from the start
and it's funny what attracted
you considering
your Old Man co-ordinates the Neighbourhood Watch.
It's not beautiful, it's not
even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
It's not beautiful, it's not
even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
Names written in the tar.
We've written off the car.
The blames that we've exchanged
ain't worth the time it takes to make them up and all the promises
and ambulances
are taking far too much of our lives up.
It's not beautiful,
it's not even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
It's not beautiful,
it's not even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
It's not beautiful,
it's not even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
It's not beautiful,
it's not even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
Walter Mitty.
and I'm not ashamed to say
"We're a Road-mash, babe".
Plastic bags get caught in trees,
plasticine between the keys;
it's a pauper's grave.
Your Mum and Dad never took to me
when I was swinging off the branches

and they knew my Dad did bird

It's not beautiful, it's not

it's not working and I'm not

It's not beautiful, it's not

It's not beautiful,

it's not working and I'm not

It's not beautiful,
it's not even pretty,
it's not working and I'm not
