text: It’s easy sometimes when you just coast along
  But like it or not something always seems to go wrong
  Sometimes people build you up just so they can knock you down
  Sometimes they will have you there
  ’cause they need someone around
  Perhaps you’ll receive invitations for tea
  Or perhaps you will laugh and you will make them all smile
  Or maybe you’ll join them ’cause it had to be
  Perhaps you’ll forget you forgot for a while
  Birds of a feather are flocking outside
  Like whippets they dance in a curly-queue dance
  Of pulses and ringing and campfire chants
  Of ritual drumming although at first glance
  You thought you could run but you won’t take a chance
  It’s not an experience if they can’t bring someone along
  They hang on emotions they bottle inside
  They peck at the ground
  And they strut out of stride
