lyrics

There's nothing quite as comfortable
There's nothing quite as soft
If you're in a shack in Peckham
or a trendy New York loft

Or a starter home in Dublin
Or a tent pegged on Mt. Acton
Or a humpy up in Humpty Doo
Oops, sorry, got distracted

There's nothing quite as comfortable
There's nothing quite as plush
In a South Chicago duplex
Or the streets of Bangladush

Or a favela in Rio
Or a chateaux in the Loire
Or a mud hut in Djibouti
Oops, once distracted once more, ha

There's nothing quite as comfortable
There's nothing quite as comfy
If you're in the presidential suite
Or shacked up in a gum tree

Or a hammock in Barbados
Or a palace in Iraq
Or a floor in post-war Kosovo
Oh dear, once more off track

There's nothing quite as comfortable
There's nothing quite as cozy
If you're in the gentrifying 'burb
of old Katakonozi

Or a garage in South Auckland
(Tories say 'what housing crisis?')
Or a bomb shelter in Little Rock
Sleep-talking about Isis

There's nothing quite as comfortable
There's nothing so sublime
As your bed right at the moment
When you're s'posed to rise and shine!
