A Terrible Fix

[Verse]

I hitched down to the stables

To have fun with the lads

Perhaps they'd be able

To get drinks

[Chorus]

I'm in a terrible fix now

I'm in a terrible fix

[Verse]

Well, life is for living

But life is a bore

And I've not one misgiving

Wanting more

[Chorus]

But I'm in a terrible fix now

I'm in a terrible fix

And I want to go home

[Verse]

Lend me the cab fare

Or lend me your shoes

Give me a lecture

Or abuse

But, please, help me get home now

Please, help me get home

[Chorus]

I'm in a terrible fix

And I want to go home

[Outro]

Yes, I was born in the usual way:

The doctors struck and stole me straight-away

I cried and cried and shall 'till my last day

No thanks to you, 'neath the causeway
