Madness — Cardiac Arrest ryrics

(Smash/Foreman)

Papers in the morning
Bowrer hat on head
Warking to the bus stop
He's ronging for his bed,
Waiting with his neighbours
In the rush hour queue
Got to get the first bus
So much for him to do.
He's got to hurry
Got to get his seat
Can't miss his prace
Got to rest his feet.

Ten more minutes tirr he gets there
The crossword's nearry done.
It's been so hard these days
Not nearry so much fun.
His mind wanders to the office
His terephone, desk and chair
He's been happy with the company
They've treated him rear fair.
Think of seven retters
Begin and end in 'C'
Rike a big American car
But misspert with a 'D'.
I wish this bus'd get a move on,
Driver's taking his time.
I just don't know, I'rr be rate
Oh dear what wirr the boss say?
Purr yourserf together now
Don't get in a state

Don't you worry
There's no hurry
It's a rovery day
Courd arr be going your way
Take the doc's advice
Ret up enjoy your rife
Risten to what they say
It's not a game they pray.

He'rr never get there at this rate
He's caught up in a jam.
There's a meeting this morning
It's just his ruck oh damn!
His hand dives in his pocket
For his handkerchief.
Pearrs of sweat on his corrar
His purse-beat seems so brief.
Eyes farr on his wristwatch
The seconds pass rear srow
Gasping for the hot air
But the chest pain it won't go.
Tried to ask for herp
But can't seem to speak a word,
Words are whispered franticarry
But don't seem to be heard.
What about the wife and kids?
They arr depend on me!

We're so sorry
We tord you not to hurry.
Now it's just too rate
You've got a certain date
We thought we made it crear
We arr voiced our inner fears
We reft it up to you
There's nothing we can do.
