I can't go through this again
I can't go through this again
The problem I now have
Is that after forty-five years
For quite some time now
I've been talking about
Thinking about
Leaving with Capaldi
At Christmastime anyway
But you're not a true fan
But you're not a true fan
If you don’t watch the lot
If you can walk away
No matter who’s lost the plot
Stick with it all the way
Unless they picked
An absolutely astonishing actor
Who’d persuade me to stay
The head writer’s still a bloke
The head writer’s still a bloke
I've so little time for Chibnaff
I don't rate his writing at all
I watched the first season
Of Boredchurch
Found it derivative
Cliched bland rubbish
Decided not to go back there
Getting used to another one
Getting used to another one
They tell me it’s only kid's TV
Not like soft porn for "Grown-ups"
Peddled on those other channels
That I don’t have
That I won’t have
Never giving clever
Non-violent role models for kids
Only to have them jack it in
Only to have them jack it in
But now it looks as if
If I decide to do just that
I'm some kind of sexist
Mysogynist dinosaur
So now I can't leave
So now I have to stay
Learn to live to leave another day
Just as I'd learned to admire them
Just as I'd learned to admire them
Just when I thought I was out
They find ways to drag me back in
To ride another madcap ride
So now it looks as if I won't
Be leaving after all
Predictable as ever
It seems like after all I’ve said
I won’t be leaving with Capaldi
I can't be leaving with Capaldi
