lyrics

Can’t complain
All considering
Ten year hustle
Is paying up dividends, yeah

Can’t complain
All considering
Fully stocked fridge
Genuine blessing, oh yeah

Few close calls
Few lost friends
View’s been bleak
Can’t pretend it didn't hurt, no

Made it all the way to thirty seven
Still a long way ‘fore we talk about heaven, long way

Now I got a place of my own
Now I got a place of my own
Mother says how you’ve grown
Mother says how you’ve grown
Life’s looking sweet as scones, yeah
Can I ask for more?

Can’t complain
All considering
Bills been paid
And my bones ain’t shivering yeah

Can’t complain
All considering
Quiet the bad mind
Boy ain’t giving up yet

No regrets
Leave ‘em out in the wash
When I hit the hay
Don’t turn or toss, no way

Mum’s on the phone
Eyes all welly
My dear son
Just saw you on telly
Oh well!
We thank God

A few more people know my name
Hackney and Brisbane
Slow but we get there all the same
Slow and steady is the way
Slow and steady is the way
Slow and steady is the way
Slow and steady
Slow and steady is the way
But I still want more

Yeah I still want more
But I still want more
Yeah I still want more
But I still want more

Yeah I still want more

They visited Marysia Zofia Osuchowska and she played Harp. Donna came over one time and whistled but stuck around on drums. Raimund Wong made ethereal sounds with the Tapedeck. Calabashed was born. ... more
