[Verse]
                        G      
Another suburban family morning
A                       G          
■ Grandmother screaming at the wall
A                            G                       
■ We have to shout above the din of our Rice Crispies
A                        G     
■ We can't hear anything at all
A                 A7                               
Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration
       A            A7               
But we know all her suicides are fake


[Chorus]
A D7                                 
■ Daddy only stares into the distance
             D                        E   
There's only so much more that he can take
A              
Many miles away
G                              
Something crawls from the slime
       E7               F          E7  
At the bottom of a dark ■ Scottish lake


[Verse]
G A7         A               G      
■ ■  Another industrial ugly morning
A                              G       D
The factory belches filth into the sky ■
A                                 G                 
■ He walks unhindered through the picket lines today
A                     G         
■ He doesn't think to wonder why
A7                                 
The secretaries pout and preen like
A7                               
Cheap tarts in a red light street
                A7                   
But all he ever thinks to do is watch


[Chorus]
D7                                                 
And every single meeting with his socalled superior
     D                              E
Is a humiliating kick in the crotch ■
E7 A              
■  Many miles away
          G                    
Something crawls to the surface
     E7                
Of a dark Scottish loch

[Verse]
                        G    
Another working day has ended
A                    G           
■ Only the rush hour hell to face
A                           G                
■ Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes
A                G            
Contestants in a suicidal race
A                                A7                     
Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance
   A7                                         
He knows that something somewhere has to break


[Chorus]
D  D7                                      D         
He sees the family home now looming in his headlights
                                          E   
The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache
Esus4 E Esus4 E

There's a shadow on the door
     E7             F    
Of a cottage on the shore
     E7            E   
Of a dark Scottish lake
