Procol Harum - Something Following Me Lyrics
(brooker / reid)While standing at the junction on 42nd streetI idly kick a pebble lying near my feetI hear a weird noise, take a look up and downThe cause of the commotion is right there on the groundImagine my surprise, thought Id left it at homeBut theres no doubt about it, its my own tombstoneI went into a shop, and bought a loaf of breadI sank my teeth into it, thought Id bust my headI dashed to the dentist, said, Ive got an awful pain!The man looks in my mouth and screams, this boy is insane!Imagine my surprise, thought Id left it at homeBut theres a lump in my mouth of my own tombstoneI went to see a movie, got the only empty seatI tried to stretch out in it, something blocking my feetFinally the lights came up, and I could clearly seeA slab of engraved marble, just staring up at meImagine my surprise, thought Id left it at homeBut theres no doubt Im sitting on my own tombstone
