[00:39.28] I sleep in late
[00:41.34] Another day
[00:43.40] Oh what a wonder
[00:45.56] Oh what a waste.
[00:47.89] It's a monday
[00:49.85] It's so mundane
[00:51.77] What exciting things
[00:53.57] Will happen today?
[00:55.98] The yard is full of hard rubbish it's a mess and
[01:00.14] I guess the neighbours must think we run a meth lab
[01:04.34] We should ammend that
[01:06.59] I pull the sheets back
[01:08.48] It's 40 degrees
[01:09.90] And i feel like i'm dying.
[01:12.98] Life's getting hard in here
[01:14.80] So i do some gardening
[01:17.05] Anything to take my mind away from where it's s'posed to be.
[01:21.31] The nice lady next door talks of green beds
[01:25.11] And all the nice things that she wants to plant in them
[01:29.77] I wanna grow tomatoes on the front steps.
[01:33.73] Sunflowers, bean sprouts, sweet corn and radishes.
[01:38.08] I feel pro-active
[01:40.28] I pull out weeds
[01:42.33] All of a sudden
[01:43.93] I'm having trouble breathing in.
[02:36.90] My hands are shaky
[02:39.01] My knees are weak
[02:41.06] I can't seem to stand
[02:42.72] On my own two feet
[02:44.73] I'm breathing but i'm wheezing
[02:46.74] Feel like i'm emphysem-in'
[02:48.88] My throat feels like a funnel
[02:50.68] Filled with weet bix and kerosene and
[02:53.46] Oh no, next thing i know
[02:55.57] They call up triple o
[02:57.53] I'd rather die than owe the hospital
[03:00.22] Till I get old
[03:01.87] I get adrenaline
[03:03.59] Straight to the heart
[03:05.43] I feel like Uma Thurman
[03:07.88] Post-overdosing kick start
[03:10.07] Reminds me of the time
[03:12.03] When i was really sick and i
[03:13.28] Had too much pseudoephedrine and i
[03:15.85] Couldn't sleep at night
[03:18.55] Halfway down high street, andy looks ambivalent
[03:20.34] He's probably wondering what i'm doing getting in an ambulance
[03:26.76] The paramedic thinks i'm clever cos i play guitar
[03:30.87] I think she's clever cos she stops people dying
[03:34.98] Anaphylactic and super hypocondriactic
[03:38.84] Should've stayed in bed today
[03:40.68] I much prefer the mundane.
[03:43.24] I take a hit from
[03:45.22] An asthma puffer
[03:47.33] I do it wrong
[03:48.77] I was never good at smoking bongs.
[03:52.98] I'm not that good at breathing in.
