about

I laboured for many years under the misapprehension that the popular 'personal care products' were made by Burt Bacharach at his apiary. This is what I imagined he might sing to them to ease their troubles.

lyrics

I'd build you a hotel, plant you a flower but it's too late
Been to long now there's nothing for you here
Spend summer days with my face staring out of the window
Always waiting but the fact is
If you wear down the things that you love
And take it all you'll still never have enough
If you neglect all the things that you love
One day they're gonnal fly away

I made you a model to walk like a giant inside
A paper mache landscape all in green
A branch line, a factory a school and a library to read in
But it didn't stand a chance here
Where you stamp on the things that you love
And take it all you'll still never have enough
If you neglect all the things that you love
One day they're gonna fly away
