Driving
'Round the Bend
Who
let the cat out the bag
Who put the dog in the sack
Who stoned the birds in the trees
Who let the horse off the lead
Who left the cap of the paste
Who let the veg go to waste
Who left the toilet seat up
And never washes their hands before lunch
I
never buy you flowers 'cause you never buy me roses
I never buy you dresses 'cause you always wear the trousers
And if I had some money I'd put it in a kitty
Save it for a rainy day and bugger off round the city
Who
left the phone of the hook
And blows my money on trashy books
Who taped over The Street
With a documentary about sore feet
Who spread the rumour 'round town
That this marriage never got off the ground
And who said that to be in love
You can kiss and tell and then make up
Starting
all over again gonna make us the best of friends
Starting all over again gonna drive us 'round the bend

Production
Produced by Grant Showbiz
Recorded by Grant Showbiz at Cathouse Studios, London
Mixed by Bartrum at Bob Lamb's Studio, Birmingham
Unusually for me, I wrote this song on a piano.
The vocals were recorded in Grant's bathroom where Morrissey had previously
done a turn. Working with Grant was great for all his Billy Bragg anecdotes,
who has been a huge influence for me. Quite a different mix was released
as a limited edition 7" vinyl single.
