INTRODUCTION TO LIFE PART TWO

Lived In London for two-years,
Had premonitions couldn't explain.
After which I always felt drained,
An outer body experience filled me with fear.

From London l phoned my mother,
She thanked me for what I did on that night.
She had a heart attack she told me that day,
Said she was dieing as on the floor she laid.

Was told I phoned for an ambulance,
She couldn't have gotten to the phone.
The CPR I gave her kept her alive,
Apparently I disappeared after
the paramedics arrived.

So seeing mice footprints in the frying pan,
Decided I'd had enough.
From London to Eastbourne I transported
my stuff.
Moved in with my old girlfriend,
(Not right away still living together
To this day).

Squatters moved into house next to us,
Wouldn't have worried about things that they did.
Until I saw them hanging out of the upstairs window,
Trying to throw a bucket of wee over some kids.

Told landlord if eviction they sort,
If they wanted I was willing to stand up in court.
They had drug party's nearly every night,
For our sanity I was willing to fight.

For the help that they offered that day,
I was offered a terraced house across the way.
Me and my bride to be looked forward
to carrying her across the threshold,
Once we were wed.
First night together we moved in,
We broke the bed!
