Song lyrics Africa by Madness

Oh I wake up in the morning can't get out of bed
What a terrible aching in my head
I'm pulling up the sheet shutting out the light
But not today, today I cannot fight
I couldn?t get to work if I wanted to
The state I'm in you'd be glad if I don't

I wash my face, comb my hair
Any minute, and I will soon be there

I?m standing by the sink, looking over Market Square
The freezing windows, going out I cannot face
The dirty dishes from the night before
And dirty clothes are strewn across the floor

I couldn't get to work if I wanted to
The state I'm in you'd be glad if I don't

I wash my face, comb my hair
Any minute and I will soon be there

(Where?)

?Cos I'll go down to Africa
When I fall asleep
The burning plains of Africa
Is where I'm going to be

Oh I've said goodbye to Holloway
Taken from AlbumSongAndLyrics.com
Farewell Southend-on-Sea
The burning plains of Africa
Is where you will find me
I will soon be there
I will soon be there
?Cos I'll go down to Africa
?Cos I?ll go down to Africa
