Halfway to richmond

Doo doo doo, etc.

I'll make supper for myself.
I'll watch the clock upon the shelf.
I'll clean this broken house you denied.
Is your time much better spent
by giving such a small percent
to every pleasantry that I tried?

What's the ugly thing I see?
When was this cold and uncomely
animosity begotten?
Fucking with the lights left on,
till every ounce of strength was gone
Is there something you'd forgotten?

When a new sun warms the bedroom wall,
I'll be halfway to Richmond.
I'm a fool just to care at all;
You're the free vagabond.

Doo doo doo, etc.

London Bridge is falling down,
and Simon says to turn around.
These games ain't too fun when you're grown.
Where'd you go, and why'd you leave?
I'll close my eyes and count to three,
Then hurry up and wait by the phone.

But when a new sun warms the bedroom wall,
I'll be halfway to Richmond.
I'm a fool just to care at all;
you're the free vagabond.

Doo doo doo, etc.
