lyrics

I only spend 75% of my time

Wondering why you chose to leave me

That means one time in four I’ve a moment sublime

And for that moment my spirit is free


Chorus: Each first step is madness

The next step is sadness

The third step brings teardrops

Then the waltz starts again


Three out of four’s not a bad rate of take

If you’re hoping to pass an exam

But 25% joy means that your heart will ache

When the door to that heart has been slammed (Chorus)


In three quarter time my love life slips on by

A dance that I sadly have mastered

And when I think on giving it one more try

Instead I go out and get plastered. (Chorus)
