lyrics

I’ve been waiting so long for this day to arrive
Waiting so long now it’s finally here
I can’t believe it now that it’s come around
Get out of bed with a spring in my step
Ever so nervous in anticipation
This should be the day my bad luck turns upside down
But wait, there’s a feeling I can’t seem to place
The world’s coming crashing down right around my face

There’s a spot on my nose and I just cannot squeeze it
A volcanic bulbous sore I can feel it
Pulsating there like a beacon in the night
A spot on my nose there’s no way I can hide it
There’s no type of concealer in all of mankind
It’s so unfair this zit’s gone and ruined my life

All I can think of are people’s reactions
I see in this mirror this throbbing reflection
I look like I’m leading Santa’s sleigh
There’s no way I can pop it just a blot like a stop light
Like an Amsterdam lady’s spotlight
I feel like I want to dig a hole and hide away
My life’s so unlucky it beggars belief
Looks like I’m Lenny Henry on Comic Relief

There’s a spot on my nose like a molten compression
It’s taking over my entire complexion
Why should this happen today of all days?
There’s a spot on my nose like a puss filled molehill
So epic Peter Jackson’s bought rights to the film
This pustule won’t bust so it’s just a carbuncle on my face

I can’t believe it’s all been ruined
Nothing in my life is simple
My future may well have been destroyed
Just from the appearance of this pimple

There’s a spot on my nose like a dartboard’s bullseye
I cannot wait for the whitehead to arrive
Then I’ll burst it and it will ooze with lava
There’s a spot on my nose I can’t wait ‘til it’s vanished
I only hope there’s no permanent damage
But until then I’ll just resort to wearing a balaclava
