The Elms The Big Surprise lyrics

I am back, this time, I'm the big surprise
And I'm hiding behind your sofa
I'm the culture shock, temporary block
And I'll love you for the next five minutes

I'm your magazine, â€~cos you read me clean
Without taking any time for pictures
I'm your hand grenade and your lemonade
â€~Cos I'll blow up and leave you soured

Find somebody with a working car
And drive them crazy, too
The big surprise is me

I worked extra hard to pick your birthday card

You just threw it out and kept my money
I got up at six to make your favorite dish
So I sank when you said, you weren't hungry

Filed your tax return, let some candles burn
Played Mozart, to make your plants grow
Then I clipped the trees, got down on my knees
Not to work, just to pray, you'd see me

Find somebody who will paint your house
And gloss them over, too
