about

Mishap - Sometimes, In order to get things right, you have to make mistakes and suffer the consequences and learn the hard way.

lyrics

Mishap

This thing came out of know where
and then it made me aware
of all the things that are there


As I sat in my armchair I began to wonder where I could find some loving care
it gave me quite a scare so I said the lords prayer so maybe it was fair

Maybe its a trap
a kind of mishap
maybe its a trap
a kind of mishap

Then I went into my shed accidentally banged my head ‘what a plonker’s’ what she said
But I won’t do that again until the next time maybe when then I’ll use my loaf of bread

Maybe its a trap
a kind of mishap
maybe its a trap
a kind of mishap

I remember when it used to be so much easier, I wish it were then instead of now anything was possible we used to be so incredible if only we could go back to then and make it now
Always on the lookout for a sensible solution
nothing was impossible until now
Those were the days when singing dancing drinking smoking and romancing - if only we could make them happen again somehow


And so I put on my flat cap fell onto a small mouse trap an unfortunate mishap.
It really knocked me into gear with a little bit of fear
So I thought I’d have a knapp

Maybe its a trap
a kind of mishap
maybe its a trap
a kind of mishap
