Sensitive Outsider

B
     In my wretched garret where 
I’ll die of starvation
B
To be buried in a pauper’s pit, 
watching The Late Show
Legs crossed needlessly, reading the
 broadsheet from the front page 
Bb
first.


 B
Elitist preservatives decorate the 
table of a kitchen in Barnes
 B
Where my Mother hangs prints and 
thinks about me constantly
And writes to me frequently: “Did I 
         Bb
like the skull cap?”


F                  Bb     F     
I’m a sensitive outsider, I’m a 
             Bb
sensitive outsider

want the whole world to know.


         B
Said the lecturers of St. Martins:  
“I will always have five farthings
         B
As long as my old man’s about 
scripting Whitehall farces”
Oh, I really hope Samantha from 
                  Bb
Athena calls with incense.


B
Faked my way through Glastonbury by 
acting all asexually
B
And then in the acoustic tent she 
stood there as if heaven sent
Well if that’s not Enya, that’s not 
                       Bb
Enya, that’s not Enya, that’s not 
Enya.
