Cardiac Arrest lyrics

Papers in the morning

Bowler hat on head

Walking to the bus stop

He's longing 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 place

Got to rest his feet.

Ten more minutes till he gets there

The crossword's nearly done.

It's been so hard these days

Not nearly so much fun.

His mind wanders to the office

His telephone, desk and chair

He's been happy with the company

They've treated him real fair.

Think of seven letters

Begin and end in 'C'

Like a big American car

But misspelt with a 'D'.

I wish this bus'd get a move on,

Driver's taking his time.

I just don't know, I'll be late

Oh dear what will the boss say?

Pull yourself together now

Don't get in a state

Don't you worry

There's no hurry

It's a lovely day

Could all be going your way

Take the doc's advice

Let up enjoy your life

Listen to what they say

It's not a game they play.

He'll never get there at this rate

He's caught up in a jam.

There's a meeting this morning

It's just his luck oh damn!

His hand dives in his pocket

For his handkerchief.

Pearls of sweat on his collar

His pulse-beat seems so brief.

Eyes fall on his wristwatch

The seconds pass real slow

Gasping for the hot air

But the chest pain it won't go.

Tried to ask for help

But can't seem to speak a word,

Words are whispered frantically

But don't seem to be heard.

What about the wife and kids?

They all depend on me!

We're so sorry

We told you not to hurry.

Now it's just too late

You've got a certain date

We thought we made it clear

We all voiced our inner fears

We left it up to you

There's nothing we can do.
