Staying Home Tonight
Phil Doleman

I’m staying home tonight, I’m staying home tonight
I got no-body to see about nothin’, I’m stayin’ home tonight

Got takeaway menus pinned on the back of my kitchen door
Got beers in the fridge, in the cupboard there’s some more
I ain’t having no house party, there’s nobody coming round
So the neighbours needn’t worry, ‘cos it won’t be getting loud

Don’t want to go out to a bar or see a West End show
I’ve got everything I need with my TV and radio
Hours and hours of box sets and a stack of books to read
I’d rather just stay home tonight and I don’t want company

One day I will emerge, blinking in the sun,
But before then I really need to get some washing done
Shave my beard, smarten up, put on a shirt and tie
So you see I’m far too busy to leave the house tonight
