Lyrics All gone wrong The Specials

All gone wrong


So what's the point of thinking deep
I bite my nails and I'm losing sleep
Goes round and round and will never halt
It's all gone wrong and it's all my fault
I used the sugar when I needed salt
Things ain't cooking for me, as you see

I need a laugh so I take a drink
Ain't it strange how they start to shrink
I swig a river and I cry a lake
It's all gone wrong and it's my mistake
I wanted tremor but I got earthquake
Things ain't going my way, not today

I'm sitting on a one way train
You say I'm heading for an early grave
There goes anxiety my favorite station
And here comes panic and palpitation

I get frustrated 'cos I need a break
But when it comes along you know I'll take
I've never eaten from the hand of fate
It's all gone wrong but it's not too late I needed love but all I got was hate
Things ain't down to a tee, believe me

I'm sitting on a one way train
You say I'm heading for an early grave
There goes anxiety my favorite station
And here comes panic and palpitation

I saw the doctor 'cos I'm feeling stress
"Hop on the couch" he said, "and get undressed"
He shook his head and said "the futures bleak"
It's getting worse and I ain't hit my peak
I want to shout but I can't even speak
Things can't get any worse, where's the hearse?

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics ALL GONE WRONG of THE SPECIALS is also present in the album Guilty 'til proved innocent (1998)

Biografia

The Specials, also known as The Special AKA, are a British musical group formed in Coventry in 1977. Considered one of the leading exponents of the British 2 Tone ska movement of the late 1970s, alongside groups like Madness, The Selecter and The Beat, they managed to combine the energetic rhythm of ska with politically and socially charged lyrics that reflected the tensions and inequalities of the time. Their sound, characterized by a mix of ska, rocksteady and punk, has influenced generations of musicians and continues to be appreciated for its contagious energy and message of hope and change. Among their most representative songs are «Ghost Town», «A Message to You Rudy» and «Too Much Too Young». The self-titled debut album of 1979 is considered a classic of the 2 Tone genre.
