Take This Lying Down - The Lucksmiths

I was looking for something

To soothe your aching head

Where did I put the recipe for breakfast in bed?

Three days stright, drinking late

Sleeping on the fire escape

And in that nightie a flaming sypmphony in red

From your window

There’s a breeze and there are views

There are trees and roofs

And streets with people on their way

On their way this afternoon

On their way but not a clue

That from the treetops they are begging you to stay

In bed today

In bed today

Rest assured, if you should ever feel the winter cold

Your comfortability will keep you warm when you get old

I invented something new

And if it’s all the same to you

I’d like to take some time and try it out

I’d like to try it out on you

Maybe you should take this

Maybe you should take this lying down…

It’s almost enough to give you something to think about
