You want some calm you want some quiet
But it ain't gonna come tonight
Thirst for knowledge, a hunger for sleep
But a fear to ever go that deep
Who's that pink faced rake in the window
A eucalypt struck dumb in the snow
Who likes receiving things per se
Almost as much as throwin them away
Woe betide, who finds out which side you're on
The agony begins, to maintain a quiet night in
The pests infest and leave messages, in trails
Like you should get out more, or less OK?
I'm tunin' in, while tuning out, the sitting goose
Even the vermin won't let me loose
Sunset calls on up the cavalry
Baying for blood, baying for meat
Please forgive, but don't condone
Now, my need for you extends from what i've shown
