lyrics

I went out for green curry at my friend's
And was welcomed by his dog’s up on the fence
He was juggling the pots and pans
While his pretty pregnant wife kissed me and let me in

He cooked for us with her accusing him
Of turning the chicken to rubber in the pan
I couldn’t help but laugh at the tone of his defence
It reminded me of my own domestic circumstance

Then I thought for a moment that maybe I’d got it wrong
We’re not that bad at all
We're Ironing out each crease
Rehearsing some ancient routine
A woman and a man

Ive got this other friend, his life has been less planned
He’s a restless soul, always jetting off somewhere
He was in Mexico with an ex-lover from long ago
When a little air sickness seemed to trick them both

When a teenage girl they said she’d never bear
She was hit by a car and had to learn to walk again
Her old injuries have made a difficult affair
I worry about her and the baby, but mostly the father, my good friend

And just for a moment I panicked from the thought
That something might steal my course
And alter my vaguest dreams
Before I can make up my mind
About the woman and the man

Cause not long ago we talked him off a bridge
Had his poor heart broke two years in a row
He said "it feels too soon but you know it’s always gonna feel too soon”
I hope their kids ok and keeps his blues at bay

And I thought for a moment that maybe I’d got it wrong;
We’re not that bad at all
We're ironing out each crease
Rehearsing some ancient routine
Called man and wife
