You're a Nightmare

[Verse 1]

All day

I'm doing fine

'Cause there are things

To pass the time

Smoke a cig

And drink some tea

Watch a programme

On TV

I just don't care where you are now

'Cause I'm sorted out, and how

I've got it all set up, you see

But when I close my eyes, it happens to me

[Chorus]

You're a nightmare

And you've made it all wrong

You're a nightmare to me

Oh, oh

You're a nightmare

Oh, and I just can't see

Why you should keep on happening to me

Oh, yeah

[Verse 2]

Well, it stopped some time in May

Whilst you were still away

Was I in bed or on a bus

Doing something pathetically ridiculous?

I never noticed it at first

But when you came back, it got worse

It's the idea of you, you see

When I close my eyes, it happens to me

[Chorus]

Oh, you're a nightmare

And you've got it all wrong

You're a nightmare to me

Oh, oh

You're a nightmare

Oh, and I just can't see

Why you should keep on

Happening to me

You're a nightmare

And you've got it all wrong

You're a nightmare to me

Oh, oh

You're a nightmare

Oh, and I just can't see

Why you should keep on

Happening

Happening to me

[Verse 3]

Oh, oh, oh

And there were hotel bedroom birthdays

Sleep in factory hallways

I remember always

Yeah, there were hotel bedroom birthdays

And sleep in factory hallways

Yeah, I remember always

[Bridge]

Why do you keep on

Hanging round?

Oh, can't you see it gets me down?

'Cause when I look at you I see

Somebody I just don't want to be

[Chorus]

Oh, whoa, you're a nightmare

And you got it all wrong

Yeah, you're a nightmare to me

Oh, oh

You're a nightmare

And you just can't see

Why you should keep on

Happening to me

You're a nightmare

And you've got it all wrong

Yeah, you're a nightmare to me

Oh, oh

You're a nightmare

Oh, and I just can't see

Oh, why, why, you should keep on

Happening to me

You're a nightmare

And you've got it all wrong

Oh, you're a nightmare to me

Oh, oh

You're a nightmare

Oh, and I just can't see

Why you're

Why you're

[Outro]

You're always hanging around

You're always hanging round

You're always hanging round

You're always hanging round

You're always hanging round

Always hanging round

You're always hanging round
