Doctor Feelgood 
 
Sleeping on a concrete bench 
 
Can I get a witness? 
 
Miss South Carolina 1975, 
 
Somebody stole your crown.

You were sleeping

In your happy home,

When you woke up baby,

Your life had come and gone.

Now you?re mystified, 
 
Standing with the rest of us

Who used to rule the world.
