Lyrics

[00:01.44] (Brooker / Reid)
[00:13.02] My Prussian-blue electric clock's alarm bell rings, it will not stop and
[00:25.05] I can see no end in sight and search in vain by candlelight for some long road that goes nowhere for some signpost that is not there
[00:43.95] And even my befuddled brain is shining brightly, quite insane
[01:04.47] The chandelier is in full swing as gifts for me the three kings bring of myrrh and frankincense,
[01:15.09] I'm told, and fat old
[01:15.60] Buddhas carved in gold
[01:24.78] And though it seems they smile with glee
[01:31.41] I know in truth they envy me and watch as my befuddled brain shines on brightly quite insane
[02:25.05] Above all else confusion reigns
[02:27.78] And though
[02:31.29] I ask no-one explains
[02:35.85] My eunuch friend has been and gone
[02:41.61] He said that
[02:48.03] I must soldier on
[02:48.42] And though the
[02:49.17] Ferris wheel spins round my tongue it seems has run aground and croaks as my befuddled brain shines on brightly, quite insane
