Squeeze - The Fortnight Saga lyrics

(difford/tilbrook) Warning: these lyrics are unconfirmed and may be inaccurate. they represent the best attempt at deciphering the song we have yet to see. Business as usual at the harmony home Up for the weekend to see my father So i'm the one beneath the unturned stone I begin the ritual fortnight saga Get in the cab, bags packed with clothes Ca**ette player, the jungle of hose A pair of shoes for walking in Out of the cab, the doorbell rings Hungover greetings from the man in my life A hug, a kiss, and a mug by the fire He says i should need a woman i might like I drop my bags and walk right by her Get in the bath, bubbles up high Ca**ette player plays in the night She's at the door, wants to come in I'm in the bath, i loudly sing Business as usual at the harmony home I can't believe it how time flies I'm waving "seeya" from the top of the road She holds his hand as mother holds mine Get in the way, unbreak my heart I could surrender, or walk right past I'm in a cab, looking at him Out of the blue i hear a bell ring Get in the cab, bags packed with clothes I'm on my way to the haemony home A pair of shoes for walking in Out of the blue i hear a bell ring
