There's a Gap In the Lounge Curtains

There’s a gap in the lounge curtains I can see it in the corner of my eye I’ve been trying to ignore it, but I can’t no matter how hard I try. It’s knowing that I know it’s there That’s really bugging me I ought to get up and close it, ‘cause I can’t concentrate on the TV. There’s a gap in the lounge curtains And it’s getting wider I would swear Well, it certainly appears to be From where I’m sitting in my chair. I know it sounds ridiculous I’m probably imagining it, I know But the feeling that gap is widening Simply will not go. There’s a gap in the lounge curtains I can see a wedge of dark sky I can also see a sliver of moon And moths as they fly by. I suppose it could be interesting If I were that way inclined But the wonders of the sky at night Is the last thing on my mind. There’s a gap in the lounge curtains And it’s getting on my nerves I really must move myself and sort it out That’s all that it deserves. But, I’m comfortable and I’m cosy Watching the TV But that bloody gap in the curtains Is really bugging me! There’s a gap in the lounge curtains How it got there I don’t know It doesn’t matter anyway That gap has got to go. It’s dominating everything, Taking over my mind. Tomorrow I’m taking the curtains down And putting up a roller blind!
