This'll never be your home
And I can keep my dress on
Without your constant moans.
How dare you steal my mother's name?
How dare you mess her 'round?
We'd do fine without you
So shed your useless pounds.
Home improvements - half-completed
Half my thoughts you've half-deleted
Why can you not stay there seated?
I don't want those fights repeated.
Try to fill the jagged cracks
With your crappy, half-arsed glue
Why can you not let them be?
Don't you get it? We don't want you!
We don't want you as a father
We've already got one of those
We don't want you as a flakey friend
So you'd best stay as our foe.
You're King of No-one's castle
You're NOT my mum's 'Dream Man'
And I wish you'd never turned up here
With your suitcases and tan.
