State of Confusion

Woke up in a panic like somebody fired a gun
I wish I could be dreaming but the nightmare's just begun
There's flooding in the basement, there's water all around
There's woodworm in the attic and the ceiling just fell down

I'm in a state, state
Of confusion
I'm in a state, state
Of confusion

All the dirty dishes are still in the kitchen sink
The tumble dryer's broken now the telly's on the blink
My girlfriend's packed her bags and moved out to another town
She couldn't stand the boredom when the video broke down

Don't know why I feel so bad
Is it the weather, or am I going mad?
Don't know why I feel this way
I don't know whether I'm coming or I'm going
Can't cover up 'cause it's obviously showing

It's a state, state
Of confusion
We're in a state, state
State of confusion

I don't know whether I'm coming or I'm going

Should feel happy, should feel glad
I'm alive and it can't be bad
But back on planet earth they shatter the illusion
The world's going 'round in a state of confusion

Standing on an island in the middle of the road
Traffic either side of me, which way will I go?
I should have stayed at home, I should have never come outside
Now I wish I never tried to cross the other side

I'm in a state, state
State of confusion
It's a state, state
State of confusion

Lyin' awake in a cold, cold sweat
Am I overdrawn, am I going in debt?
It gets worse, the older that you get
No escape from the state of confusion

I'm in
State of confusion
I'm in
