about

Do I stay or do I go now...?

lyrics

There’s woman from the agency
Coming to see you tomorrow
She wants to ask you some questions
She wants to get to know you

Who me?
Why me?

She runs a house not far from here
And there’s a vacancy
Perhaps you’d like to go and see
After my shift at a quarter to three

Really?
Yes really -

But I’ve been here for twenty-two years
I’m used to the smells and the staff and the rules
What if I don’t fit in?
What if I can’t settle in?

To community care
Community care
Everybody’s moving out there

You know Terry from the ATC
And Josie sweet Josie
They moved out not so long ago
They have a dog-called Benny they go shopping at Tesco

Oh
I didn’t know…

There’s an amazing chippy a short walk away
And the staff make incredible bolognaise
Your own room and a front door key
They look after your money

If you’ve never caught the bus on your own
They will teach you how be alone
How to live in your own home
Just say you want to
Go on

Community care community care
Everyone is moving out there

Community care
Community care

Just say you want to…
