Madness - Not Home Today

She says he's gone away on a short holiday
He won`t be back for awhile
The twleve from the bench stood up
And hesitated he`ll be leaving
Right after this trial

Circumstance, evidence who can cheat providence
He wished he could go back again
A flick of the wrist
He wished that he missed
Not guilty is all he can say

Pass `round the gossip now
Let`s wait and see
Pass `round the tray now
Let`s have some tea
My boys haven`t seen him
He`s been working away
Don`t bother asking
He`s not home today
Not home today

T-shirts and badges
With free tickles and smudges
In the end you`ll believe what you feel
When ten hands are aiming
And no-one is complaining
In a sense it could be more real
