12 Bar Acid Blues

Well I found myself in a world of pain
And I thought I'd try to get away
So I went online and booked a trip
I thought I was due a holiday
So I sat right down and wrote to you
Oh dear John those things you do
So I packed my stuff and cleared the room
Off I go singing a different tune

So I'm in the cab I'm running late
I have no hope within these city gates
I think of things I should have done
Countless things I should have brung
Oh no what can I do
The passport check I'm already through
I've got a feeling in my gut
That I'm in a short queue for a lot of bad luck

I should have heeded my father's saying
That things will go wrong
If you try to run before you crawl

Well as I found things can get worse
And I'm starting to think I may be cursed
Well the kid behind he's kicking me
Possessed by demons on TV
Oh no what can I do
My passport's gone, my wallet too
I've eaten fish and I'm feeling sick
I can only hope I'll be landing quick

Well the first I knew we were up the creek
It had got so bad I couldn't speak
I was all keyed up for Mexico
But I was landing now down in Moscow
Oh no this just won't do
I wanted heat and it's minus two
I'm all choked up and I'm feeling mad
I couldn't believe it could get this bad

I should have heeded my father's saying
That things will go wrong
If you rush too fast, you will fall

Well I'd lost my bags and all I had
Was duty free and a fashion mag
With no cash and no Visa too
I had a lot of explaining to do
Well they said this just won't do
This is counterfeit and so are you
Well I found myself without my shoes
In a cold jail cell and now I got the blues

I should have heeded my father's saying
Cause things did go wrong
When I tried to run than face it head on

Do do do do do
