I need to sleep, I need to sleep, I need…
The neighbours were shout, shouting, bang, banging
Enough at 3 am to make ears bleed
After a while, the pair were quietening
And dreams were returning, were returning
But then, just before four, just before four
They started it all again, and joining
The argument was a voice much deeper
A second man had come over, over
And the husband now sounded frantic, keyed
Up and more defensive, his voice rising
The noise stopped at half-four, stopped at half-four
I lay, light grew like a seed, like a seed
I rose early, started cleaning, cleaning
