Notions

I'm sitting in our office
It's a great big fancy room -
And my head is full of notions
About the move I'm making soon!
 
It seems I've got to settle
My affairs to make a trip or two
So my head is full of notions
About how I will explain it all to you!
 
You see - you and I are partners
In a business by the sea -
And my head is full of notions
About what you're gonna think of me!
 
Now you won't be very happy
When I've disappeared from view,
And I haven't got a notion
Of what excuse I'll make to you!
 
I drew all the money out the bank
And I've got my passport in my hand -
And my head is full notions
Of a carefree foreign land!
 
I just couldn't take the pressure
Of another working day -
And with my head so full of notions
Well  -  I just had to get away!!
 
Now, I know you won't be happy
About the mess I've left behind,
But if you should ever take the notion -
Then join me  -  I won't mind!!
