HELP ME FIND MY WAY HOME
(Ian M. Bruce/Victor C. Besch)

He rolled up his sleeves, he firmly believes
Do it well if a job needs doing.
Forging a career through blood, sweat & tears
Working the whole day through.
Takes a wee break, soothing the ache Miraculous rejuvenation.
At the end of the day he gets a little pay
But he never found his way home.

The opposite guy with his shifty eye
Sneaks off round the corner.
Watching others sweat is as close as he gets
To working a whole day through.
Takes a long break, feigns a headache
Pure procrastination
At the end if the day he's told to go away
But he never found his way home.

Dressed to the nines, careful designs
Must create the right impression.
Another diplomat talks through his hat
Compromises his whole day through
A constant preach, a goad and a screech
Stirring a conflagration.
But he never found his feet nor political beat
So he never found his way home.

You'd almost swear he just didn't care It's a habit.
He can't kick it.
Had another swig till his liver got big
From working the whole day through.
He drank another glass, fell on his arse Cold inebriation.
In cold winter chill he lies quite still
He never found his way home.

One last vice, throwing the dice
And faith at some daft system
Another wheel spin, again no win
But gambled the whole day through. T
he odds were bad, he risked all he had
Hideous speculation
One last shot he lost the bloody lot
Even lost his way home.

So what of these five? They all survive
To some extent I within me.
From busting a gut to systems all shut
Lasting the whole day through.
Sometimes I feel great, sometimes in a state
Bi-polar fluctuation.
Confusion reigns again so I picked up the pen
To help me find my way home.
