The Brothers Creeggan - Survey the Situation lyrics

I will survey the situation Til' Martha comes home And the teacher's always tryin' But then kids, they keep on cryin' And it's me who feels like dyin' Til' Martha comes home (And there won't be somethin' hot for dinner) "She went to see her mother" She took refuge in the eddy And she'll be back when she's ready When my temper's back to steady Oh, Martha, you can come home I will survey the situation Til' Martha comes home
