lyrics

(opinions)

Four hundred people and a hall and a floor that does not give
And I am fifty-two and the fourth song is at ten past nine
And somewhere around the ninth wedding of the summer
My left knee started filing formal complaints

My knees have opinions (opinions)
Strong ones, opinions
Every Saturday, opinions
Opinions

My knees have opinions, opinions, my knees have opinions
There is a boy of nine who does not know he is the plan
My knees have opinions, opinions, my knees have opinions
And nobody has ever told him what he has agreed to

He rang about a christening. Found one by the door. Told his mum.
Very serious. Reported back like a colleague filing a report.
That is the whole succession sorted, on a Sunday, by a child.

My knees have opinions, opinions, my knees have opinions
There is a boy of nine who does not know he is the plan
My knees have opinions, opinions, my knees have opinions
And nobody has ever told him what he has agreed to
