Creepy Crawling

Chumbawamba

6

What a wonderful world

What a wonderful world

A loose door-jamb, light left on

The oldest national lottery

Enter Johnny-go-darkly

Come to spoil my party

Smell of feces lingers

Echo of light fingers

Cold comfort blankets

Steeped in creeping anger

Flatfoot comes poking

Compounding my misery

Grinding pestle and mortar

Adding insult to injury

If only this, if only that,

If only in my guts

See my life before my eyes

Trampled underfoot

(Chorus)

Creepy crawling

(Repeat)

All the creeps go creepy crawling

Same thing every night

How can stealing candy from a baby seem alright?

What a wonderful world

What a wonderful world

Corvino, carrion crow

Skulking with his mobile

Slippery peat-bog eyes

Stick-on smiley smile

Small print like quicksand

Not a wooden leg to stand on

Sinking through my stomach

The ground beneath me gone

Free-fall, call Ophelia

Clutching at straw

Mixed with bloody feathers

From scruff of neck of crow

Johnny go! Johnny gone!

Too much drink in your tum-tum-tum

See this finger, see this thumb

See this fist and watch it come

(Chorus)
