| I’m not feeling quite myself, something’s gone outta sync
|
| There’s a cog inside my head, needs relocating and slotting in It all looks a little strange like I been here before
|
| But things are not in place, somebody moved the door
|
| Who is this man in front of me, stained with nicotine
|
| He claims he’s my superior and it’s 1973
|
| Whose own way of policing ain’t doing it by the book
|
| Settling most endeavours with a healthy right hook
|
| For him the word compassion’s not in his vocabulary
|
| Trying it got me back «don't go all Dorothy on me»
|
| Chorus
|
| Wake, wake up To another day with the Sheriff trying to show me the way
|
| Come on now wake, wake up Wake up and smell the cocoa, I’m still here
|
| I guess I ain’t going home today…
|
| Speeding round the streets, heavy on the brakes
|
| Taking bribes, planting evidence to clear the scum away
|
| Bets on a Party 7, fighting for my pride
|
| The only way to show him that I’m right this time
|
| Done and dusted by teatime, his gut paving the way
|
| Another off the streets, another collar put away
|
| Chorus x 2
|
| Today, not today, I ain’t going home today
|
| Today, not today, I ain’t going home today |
