Kinks - State of Confusion - Текст песни

Woke up in a panic,

Like somebody fired a gun

I wish I could be dreaming,

But the nightmares just begun.

Theres flooding in the basement,

Theres water all around.

Theres woodworm in the attic

And the ceiling just fell down.

Im in a state (state)

Of confusion (whooooh).

Im in a state (state)

Of confusion (whooooh).

All the dirty dishes

Are still in the kitchen sink.

The tumble dryers broken,

Now the tellys on the blink.

My girlfriends packed her bags

And moved out to another town.

She couldnt stand the boredom

When the video broke down.

Dont know why I feel so bad.

Is it the weather, or am I going mad? 

Dont know why I feel this way.

I dont know whether Im coming or Im going,

Cant cover up cause its obviously showing.

Its a state (state)

Of confusion (whooooh).

Were in a state (state)

Of confusion (whooooh).

I dont know whether Im coming or Im going.

Should feel happy, should feel glad.

Im alive and it cant be bad,

But back on planet earth they shatter the illusion,

The worlds going round in a state of confusion.

Standing on an island

In the middle of the road.

Traffic either side of me,

Which way will I go? 

I shouldve stayed at home,

I should have never come outside.

Now I wish I never tried

To cross the other side.

Im in a state (state)

State of confusion (whooooh).

Its a state (state)

Of confusion (whooooh).

Lyin awake in a cold, cold sweat,

Am I overdrawn, am I going in debt? 

It gets worse, the older that you get.

No escape from the state of confusion Im in.

State of confusion Im in.

Whooooh
