about

This song about have dodgy memory also features some of my favourite sideways yodeling.

lyrics

Porridge

I'm always forgetting something x2
I'm always forgetting I've got porridge for a brain

And yet I don't get regretful
Forgetting I'm so forgetful
Just one lap around the fish bowl
All is new again again

Not just names but also faces
So so much for social graces
Second verses of 80's pop songs
Are all that I retain

I've got day old porridge for a brain

I'm always forgetting something x2
When I leave I have to pop back
Time and time again again

Despite what you might be thinking
It's not due to drugs or drinking
No mad cow consumption
Or old age can quite explain

But no-one's got it together
We're all Dodos of a feather
Treading water beneath a surface
That seems serene and sane
