Every morning I commute to 
my kitchen table
Where I sit and write 
"Hello thank you for your email,
Sorry for the slow reply it's just that I've been busy
Staring into the abyss, best wishes"
		
Every evening in sequins 
I stand on stage
And try to remain relevant 
Despite my age
I tell another joke, hey that's what we're here for
Have you heard the one about the impending nuclear war?

What am I doing with my life?

I lie awake each night in bed
With this thought playing in my head
Until it turns to existential dread
And I'm left thinking

What's the point
In anything?
What's the point
At all?
What's the point
What's the point?
In anything?
What's the point in anything at all?

I watch the news and get confused 
And overwhelmed
So I turn it off and then I feel guilty
That I turned it off				    

Should I do more for humanity? 
Should I stop you on the street for charity? 

Could I be the next Mother Theresa?
Or Jesus? Or Bimini?

No I'm just an insignificant speck
As useless as a travellers cheque
I think I better get my shit together

Maybe I should leave the city
Move to somewhere slightly shitty
Be the gentrifier I despise 
Or maybe I should get a dog 
Or start believing in someone's God
Just to give some purpose to my life
But then I think

What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?
What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?

What
Am I
Doing 
With my life?

Do you know what I mean? 
Do you know what I mean?
Oh I know you know what I mean
Are we all just cogs 
With pointless jobs
In the capitalist machine?

Do you know what I mean? 
Do you know what I mean?
Oh I know you know what I mean
Or is at all just fake
Are we living in The Matrix?
Is life but a dream?

What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?
What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?

What's the point in democracy?

What's the point in religion?

What's the point in aristocracy?

What's the point in pigeons?

What's the point in working?

What's the point in not?

What's the point in having a king?

What's the point in wasps?

What's the point in Bourgeois?

What's the point in Maurice?

What's the point in fois gras?

What's the point in geese? 

What's the point in doing this show?

I honestly don't know

What's the point in singing this song?

There isn't one

What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?
What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?
What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?
What's the point
What's the point in anything?
What's the point in anything at all?
