Robert Williams b. 1974

Two Hidden Poems by Robert Williams


Things got weird
Like a three year old with a beard
Like a vision of Britney Spears
Like a tuna always seared
Do you like it a lot?
Guess what's on the clock?
I'd rather fanny about on a yacht
Stop staring at the stars

Save The Children
Save The Children

Things got weird
Like a three year old with a beard
Like a vision of Britney Spears
Like a tuna always eared
Do you like it alot?
Guess what's on the clock?
I'd rather fanny about on a yacht
Stop staring at the stars


Is the Richard Gere gerbil story true?
Who came third in World War II?
Did Sooty sleep with Sue
These things I think about
When I'm out with you

What are the holes in biros for?
Which one's which in The Corrs?
Did Geoff Hurst really score?
Cause frankly you're a bore
And I'm not

And if it's leaving season
You're second on the bill
If you won’t leave me baby
I'll find someone who will
I tried love
I'm sorry
I tried love

Does God ever get it wrong?
Where has Gary Barlow gone?
Why is Christmas day so long?
It just goes on and on and on
Like you

And if it's leaving season
You're the second on the bill
If you won't leave me baby
I'll find someone who will
I tried love
I'm sorry
I tried love

Duu du du duu duu...

I tried love
And I'm sorry
I tried love
