A Perishing of Cherished Things

How did I end up getting involved in the very existence I planned on avoiding?

Wendy was a writer with talent,
Then she fell in love and now she’s married to Alan,
And all that Wendy writes are her letters to Sharon

Sharon shares a similar sense of resentment,
For her love she’s moving to a town that she’s not even heard of

But anyway, anyway, they get to go abroad on holiday...

There’s a spider in my bed, imagine that, imagine that,
Though he sits and he stares that creepy crawly doesn’t answer back, answer back,
Looks at me as if he knows the answer to the question that I pose…:

How did I end up getting involved in, the very existence I planned on avoiding?

Now Wendy wishes things had been different and Sharon shuttles kids to the pictures
Though it’s hardly the worst situation on Earth,
There’s a perishing of cherished things and memories are blurred...

But anyway, anyway, they get to go abroad on holiday...

There’s a spider in my bed, imagine that, imagine that,
Though he sits and he stares that creepy crawly doesn’t answer back, answer back,
Looks at me as if he knows the answer to the question that I pose…

How did I end up getting involved in, the very existence I planned on avoiding?
