Peel my lids open
Send your name heavenwards
Stick on some warpaint

‘Sittin' in the mornin' sun
I'll be sittin' when the evenin' come
Watching the ships roll in
And then I watch 'em roll away again’

Still there when the sun goes down
Mesmerised by boats

Lower frequencies
And attenuated highs
Are what I’m into

'Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start'

(Best misheard lyric ever - will now never unhear this!)

Who coined the phrase Conscious Uncoupling (and wrote the lyrics to this song)? :)

It’s difficult, agreed:
Conscious uncoupling is sad.
We should reconvene

‘I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now
I was looking for a job and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now’

Love this technique! Today's clue may have been more popular with those stayed at home and wallowed :)

Pissed-up but content
I’m no longer quite so chuffed
Hate employment too

‘Please could you stop the noise?
I'm trying to get some rest
From all the unborn chicken
Voices in my head’

(What’s this?) was an extra clue 😉

I could use some respite from
Egg cacophony

You were serving drinks
Upon our first encounter
Remember that, luv.

His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti
