The Waterboys - Strange Arrangement lyrics

It's a strange arrangement I don't claim to understand it I know I created it But I never planned it It's a strange arrangement And I'm not proud Well perhaps a little ashamed If ashamed is allowed At the d**h of the year In a crucial hour I exchanged the power of love For the love of power The invisible captain Must be laughing out loud I feel as if I'm wrapped inside a Cloud within a cloud It's a strange arrangement And it's fascinating to see Which way the worm turns Especially when the worm is me Runaway child I wish you were here The weather is uncommonly mild For this time of year But it's no cause for pity And it's no reason to weep Worse things can befall a man when he's In his bed counting sheep It's a strange arrangement An accommodation deluxe I'll send you a postcard When I've had enough
