The Beautiful South The Rocking Chair Lyrics

#
Here I walk, here I walk
Loooking for an angel's wings in the den of the hawk
#
Here I am, here I am
With a choice between an also ran and a sunbed tan
And you thought you'd found your own little look
How I misjuged, how I mistook
And you thought you'd found the style of your hair
I guess tonight I'll take, I'll take my troubles to
The rocking chair
So I'll take these high heeled shoes
#
And yes I'll take these traditional views
I'll take this deep despair of a 30 year old square
To the rocking chair
#
Here I sit, here I sit
Looking for a warming smile in a house of cold wit
#
Here I stand, here I stand
Torn between the balding drunk and no man's land
And they'll tell you when you've reached your peak
Where the wulf-whistle rung there's a deafening shriek
Blowing kisses into the air
I guess tonight I'll take, I'll take these troubles to
The rocking chair
So I'll take these awkward stance
And I'll take this sexless dance
I'll take this deep despair of a 30 year old square
To the rocking chair
Am I skinny? A shade too fat?
Mmmm... My friend the cat knows all about that
Am I happy?
(Here I sit, here I sit)
Just a little sad
(Looking for a warming smile in the house of cold wit)
Mmmm... My friend the cat knows all about that
Am I skinny?
(Here I walk, here I walk)
A shade too fat?
(Loooking for an angel's wings in the den of the hawk)
My friend the cat knows all about that
