When Toast Met Crust

Oh, to be young and slutty again

Then I’d not feel cold like this

But one quid just to hang my coat

Did kind of take the piss

Especially when I had scarf and cardi

Gloves and snood and muffs

That didn’t half put me out of pocket

Especially after blowing dough on the good stuff

Right now I’m walking round the lakes

Not falling out the club

The dogs are pulling on the lead

Along the bobbled curb I scuff

Wishing I had that thick juvenile skin

Cos I just ain’t got on enough

Also happy I know where I’m heading

No longer toast looking for its crust

I’ll go in to heating

I’ll go into steady walls and trust

I’ll go into reliability, regularity

Recognition because now it’s only us

There will be no sofa dwellers

No dusty surfaces, mess nor fuss

Tipped the scale the furthest dink

With no chance now to give let hair a run

I love that warm hug of safety

I quite enjoy knowing what’s to come

But there’s only so long

Getting cold on a dog walk

Is my only outlet for fun.
