Bed and Breakfast

Verse 1
Someone’s come a docking on my shore
Story quite shocking prospects poor
Some aliens or Iranians I’m not really sure
oh no
They want asylum or a place to run
maybe something more.

Chorus
Don’t bother me, I have my safe beliefs, don’t cloud my mind
don’t waste your time
Don’t bother me, there is the self same chance
in life for all of us
so don’t make a fuss
just give ‘em bed and breakfast

Verse 2
Someone’s come a knocking on my door
methadone blocking craving more
Some no can quit of a drug addict I’m not really sure
Oh No
And he wants a hit or a place to fit
maybe somewhere warm

Chorus
Don’t bother me, I have my safe beliefs, don’t cloud my mind
don’t waste your time
Don’t bother me, there is the self same chance
in life for all of us
so don’t make a fuss
just give ‘em bed and breakfast

Verse 3
Childhood lies bleeding on the floor
I catch the newsbreak waging war
On some coori kid who realy should have hid
Of that I am sure
Oh yea
Maybe stole a can or some bread and jam
one time here before

Chorus
Don’t bother me, I have my safe beliefs, don’t cloud my mind
don’t waste your time
Don’t bother me, there is the self same chance
in life for all of us
so don’t make a fuss
just give ‘em bed and breakfast
