about

A tongue in cheek song written by Colm a few months deep into the covid 19 lockdown about partner's living in eachother's pockets "With nowhere to go".

lyrics

Well it's only day 3 in a quarantine
And I've come to see she's an ice queen
She aint nothing but mean
She's mean to me

Does anybody else here feel like I do?
Living in the doghouse with the quarantine blues

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to run to
I read the complete works of Sun Tzu
Don't you dare ask me what for
Now I'm sure that love is war

I always knew that I was moody
But confinement doesn't suit me
I know she wants to shoot me
I can see it in her eyes
Last week she was broody
Now she's blasting Tutti Fruity
To tease me Little Richard
If you read between the lines
As the clock's tick tockin'
I'm convinced she's Johnny Cochrane
Getting her alibis solid before she kills daddio
I write a secret note
I stick it in the post
Just to let the children know
Daddy's buried in the patio
Because Mamma went loco
Pappa did too
Tried to kill each other in the quarantine blues

Nowhere to go
Nowhere to run to
I read the complete works of Sun Tzu
And Don't you dare ask me what for?
Now I'm sure that love is war

Does anybody else feel like I do?
Living in the doghouse with the quarantine blues
