LYRICS
A DANIEL COMES TO JUDGE
Sitting thinking
Sick of talking
Just watching the world go by
It seems
These thoughts weigh heavy
Then an epiphany
With each step forward
There's someone near
Who comes to knee me
In the groin
And on close inspection
It's always you
​
Our care-free first date
To "do you really need mates?"
That seems a thousand years ago
A daily routine that can't be altered
No matter however hard I try
​
You're needing money
You need me home
You need me out the house again
Need help with the shopping
The bins need emptying
Don't forget to pick the towels up off the floor
When I ask you something
You don't answer
Like I'm a Jehovah Witness at the door
(So I'm going out)
​
You didn't see me
Now you look right through me
It's not quite what I had in mind
Here comes a Daniel, come to help me
He has the key to everything
You didn't see me
Now you look right through me
It's not quite what I had in mind
Here comes a Daniel
Come to save me?
Or better yet (come to take you off my hands)
​
From teenage playmates
To virtual-cellmates
That seems a thousand years ago
A daily routine
Friday night with a Chow Mein
Complimented with vague acknowledgments
​
Turn off the telly!
Seen the size of your belly!
Have you anything positive to say?
You need to get our, and earn some more
Now I never see you and can't bare to be with you
(Well thanks for that)
​
You didn't see me
Now you look right through me
It's not quite what I had in mind
Here comes a Daniel, come to help me
He has the key to everything
You didn't see me
Now you look right through me
It's not quite what I had in mind
Here comes a Daniel
Come to save me?
Or better yet (come to take you off my hands)
​
I wish I was him
I wish I was Daniel
He seems to know
He's a superman
Every situation
Has a solution
As a Daniel comes to judge
