Gordon Bennett Songtext / Lyric

Suddenly I've just remembered

Left my suitcase unattended

Gordon Bennett

If I don't get back fairly quick

There won't be nothing left of it

Gordon Bennett

It takes a lot to make me cry

But given that I do I find it hard

Nevertheless

Crying we associate with woman mostly

After all they are the weaker sex

We as men must never let

Our weakness show

I crossed the road I heard a skid

I looked around and when I did

Gordon Bennett

A car no bigger than a van

Careered into a baby's pram

Gordon Bennett

At least the child it wasn't there

Imagine if it was I swear

I would have gone berserk

Even an accident

With me where children are concerned

Can't bear to see them hurt

It's a fate they don't deserve

At least not yet

Maybe when they're old enough to defend themselves

Gordon Bennett

What's the use pretending you have lost your shoes

When you can't find your feet

Seems to me they should be there

This morning when you looked they were

Perhaps they're being discreet

Have another look and see

I think you'll find they were there

You though they weren't all the time

Am I doing something wrong

You mean to say you're not turned on

Gordon Bennett

Maybe God is telling me

That I should have become a priest

Gordon Bennett (Gordon Bennett)

Luck is such a powerful force

Without it history would of course

Have change dramatically

All the time you're knocking life

You wouldn't be without it right

Then say so damn it speak

One of the troubles with free speech

Put on the spot

There's so much you want to say

But not a lot
