“He's really not with us.” - Tony Bradley

I used to tell my wife,"look, I ain't bovvered"
she always said I'm definitely not the full shilling
she knew I easily nodded off with the fairies
and she used to give me a regular grilling.

I can easily nod off, sitting, or just leaning
just a quiet moment, and I'm away
and sometimes I can wake up, 5 minutes later
and I'm sure it can't possibly still be the same day.

If I had to wait 5 minutes for her, shopping
I'd usually dozed off, when she came back
so, no help with shopping bags, she's annoyed
she says it's embarrassing, and I get a whack.

When I wake, I think 'where am I ?
what day is it, what's the score?'
Apparently, I'm the only person, who gets this problem
so now, I don't tell anyone, any more.
