Seven albums down, I live in hope of one day having a minor hit.

lyrics

CHORUS
Happy little accident x 4

I'd like to get myself into a happy little accident
And bend the fender, skin the skin, but not beyond repair
To lay a little kiss upon a lamppost by the roadside
Let every last nerve effervesce but walking off with care

No need to take you down with me, this isn't all about you
No need to stop and offer help, it's just my normal wreck
I'm happy where I am with all things bent and nothing broken
I'm here to risk a sweet escape and not to risk my neck

CHORUS

I'd like to get myself into a happy little accident
And give myself the license to pick up the phone and say
I cannot make it in, the burden that I bear will have to fall
Upon the weary shoulders of another fool today

No need to tear me from my bed and throw myself in prison
Unlock my iron maiden with a key stamped in my name
I'm happy where I am with all things wounded but my spirit
I'll wear the sling if that means I won't have to wear the blame

CHORUS

I'd like to get myself into a happy little accident
A beautiful collision met with nothing but a smile
A happy opportunity to bring me to a crashing halt
To stave away the daily urge to go the extra mile

CHORUS
