Wonderful Distraction - The Wombats

Tekst piosenki

I watch repeated wildlife shows to keep my mind ticking

but someone's leacing around my throat and watch my carcass disintegrate

I bought a book of Churchill quotes and i thought it might be interesting

At least it diverts attention from the things that we all know we should say

What a wonderful, distraction you are

Our friends keep vanishing for the jobs in the city

Then re-appear as vacant ghosts with titles that no one understands

I bought a pair of blinkers from a market off the high street

They tunnel my vision, I hope my thoughts don't stray off topic again

What a wonderful, distraction you are

Keep your feet grounded, keep your feet grounded

This is not the time for grandios(?)

Keep your lips moving, keep your lips moving

Don't let your head spoil the flow

Keep that arm shaking, keep that arm shaking

This is great _____________________ you know

Keep the drinks coming, keep the drinks coming

Climb on that ladder and go

What a wonderful, distraction you are
