Not Home Today Lyrics

Not Home Today lyrics

She says he`s gone away on a short holiday 
He won`t be back for awhile 
The twleve from the bench stood up 
And hesitated he`ll be leaving 
right after this trial

Circumstance, evidence who can cheat providence 
He wished he could go back again 
A flick of the wrist 
He wished that he missed 
Not guilty is all he can say

Pass `round the gossip now 
Let`s wait and see 
Pass `round the tray now 
Let`s have some tea 
My boys haven`t seen him 
He`s been working away 
Don`t bother asking
he`s not home today 
Not home today

T-shirts and badges 
With free tickles and smudges 
In the end you`ll believe what you feel 
When ten hands are aiming 
And no-one is complaining 
In a sense it could be more real
