I’m Not Going Anywhere – Written Wednesday 11th July 2001 (Aged 26)

I’m Not Going Anywhere

i’m not going anywhere
don’t you leave the table
don’t use the stairs,
stay right here,
i’m not going anywhere
don’t go and fetch firewood
i’ve got a bundle to share
don’t cross the road,
even when it turns green
don’t cross the road,
even if it is bare
don’t leave the house
i’m not going anywhere
just for now,
let’s stay
and let’s stay right here
with all that we have to share
don’t leave this house,
i’m not going anywhere
