Put your hope in a piece of toast
The only thing to keep you afloat
Cold tea and cutlery
Might cover up you and me
I don't think so you might say
But since when do you see all the grey
For heavens sake
Lets negotiate
While I wipe the slate
Clean
Our last defence
From our common sense
Is sitting on the fence
You know what I mean
Doing dishes, sweeping floors
Anything to cover the pause
Peace talks may never resume
But at least we'll have a tidy room
Who would think domestic bliss
Could hit an impasse just like this
For heavens sake
Lets negotiate
While I wipe the slate
Clean
Our last defence
From our common sense
Is sitting on the fence
You know what I mean
For heavens sake
Lets negotiate
While I wipe the slate
Clean
Our last defence
From our common sense
Is sitting on the fence
You know what I mean
