One Day, that's all we've got!

One day left till the end of the academic year and then we're finished for...well, lots of weeks! I don't want to check my diary to see how long we have off. I just want to think of it as A Long Time.

Meanwhile, we are crawling to the finish line at about 2.00 tomorrow afternoon, I should think. My brain hurts, so I was inspired to sing this:

Pushing thru the market square, so many mothers sighing (sighing)
News had just come over, we had one day left to cry in (cry in)
News guy wept and told us, mum was really trying (trying)
Cried so much his face was wet, then I knew he was not lying (lying)

I heard telephones, opera house, favourite melodies
I saw boys, toys, electric irons and T.V.'s
My brain hurt like a warehouse, it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there
And all the fat-skinny people, and all the tall-short people
And all the nobody people, and all the somebody people
I never thought I'd need so many people

We've got one day, stuck on my eyes
One day, what a surprise
We've got one day, my brain hurts a lot
One day, that's all we've got
We've got one day, what a surprise
We've got one day, my brain hurts a lot
One day, that's all we've got
ad infinitum

And I mean every word of that.

With apologies to David Bowie, bless him.
