Written during busking in Chichester today..driving in the car to Chichester and dreaming up ideas coming back...did it this afternoon in a couple of hours..or three...saw a shop called "Crumbs" driving back from Bournemouth last week and asked Jazzy to write it down...more material seeping out...

Lyric:

I used to keep on top of things all the time
(Not anymore)

Oh Crumbs! I must confess, There's stuff all over the carpet.
Oh Crumbs! it's such a mess, Let's put it down to my heartache.
There's dust all over the surfaces, There's pile's of stuff on the table,
Oh Crumbs! I'm having guests, Let's put it down to the heartache.

I used to keep on top of things all the time
(Not anymore)

Oh Crumbs! There's loads to do, Suppose I better get started.
Oh Crumbs! It's all askew Let's put it down to my heartache.
There's woodlice coming through the back door window, Cobwebs on the ceiling,
Oh Crumbs! What will ensue... We'll put it down to my heartache.

I used to keep on top of things all the time
(Not anymore)

Oh Crumbs! It's gone all wrong, The plants could do with a water.
Oh Crumbs! Let's write a song, I suppose I think that I oughter.
There's dirty washing in the kitchen sink, Over there's a pile of laundry,
Oh Crumbs! Where's this belong? Stick it in with my heartache.
