What on earth!?
What on earth is happening
What on earth is going on
Can’t keep up with all the calamity
But everything’s going wrong
First my dad gets cancer
Then I find my own mum dead
Now they think I have HIV
And it’s fucking with my head
Just give a girl a fucking break
Let me please chill the fuck out
Need a lie down in a quiet room
It’s stirred up so much doubt
Brother in rehab the year before last
A cousin with a brain tumour too
Got debt coming out my eye balls
And yet I keep plodding on
Please can I slow down a while
Please can life just stop
Need to get my shit together
So I can feel on top
Need to get off of this train
Need to hail a cab
Take some shelter from this rain
I think I’m going mad
There’s a constant barrage of bullshit
Just getting in my way
I’m tired, weary, lost and alone
With no way of escape
What on earth is going on
Can’t keep up with all the calamity
But everything’s going wrong
First my dad gets cancer
Then I find my own mum dead
Now they think I have HIV
And it’s fucking with my head
Just give a girl a fucking break
Let me please chill the fuck out
Need a lie down in a quiet room
It’s stirred up so much doubt
Brother in rehab the year before last
A cousin with a brain tumour too
Got debt coming out my eye balls
And yet I keep plodding on
Please can I slow down a while
Please can life just stop
Need to get my shit together
So I can feel on top
Need to get off of this train
Need to hail a cab
Take some shelter from this rain
I think I’m going mad
There’s a constant barrage of bullshit
Just getting in my way
I’m tired, weary, lost and alone
With no way of escape
