The Beetles

She curls up very tightly as I leave the bed
and I stumble to the kitchen 
cotton wool unwinding in my head 
it's just a Wednesday 

Beans and bacon in the non stick frying pan 
coffee on the counter and
two burnt toast with a pot of jam
it's just a Wednesday.

Picking up the tempo 
putting on my shoes 
running for the six fifteen 
it's 
too early for those early morning 
blues 
It's just a Wednesday.
