Sydney Singer songwriter
I am a songwriter and I write because it is there and I can. I write a mixture of silly love songs and social comment as I think we need both.
Story behind the song
This was one of those RMMS songwriter challanges.
Lyrics
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
