Gadding About…

Me & Sophie pull up at half eight
Just a couple of seconds apart
We like to get in early to get organised
Coz we’ve both got a half nine start
We’re both laden with books in our Bags For Life
It’s just one of our safety behaviours
We put our backs out humping them up the stairs
Aaron Beck is our Holy saviour...


We’re just gadding about from 9 to 5
We ricochet from compare to despair
Trying to hide our imposter syndrome…

Me & Sophie are just winging it
Half the time we don’t know where to begin
We never practice what we preach we’re just hypocrites
A couple of Dewey Finns
Me in Room 7 & Sophie in 6
We’re like a couple of weather vanes
In & out all day with our latest updates
Celebrating DNA’s...

We’re just gadding about from 9 to 5
We ricochet from compare to despair
Trying to hide our imposter syndrome…

We both know it’s all smoke & mirrors
It’s like a scene from A Beautiful Mind
With our post-it notes all over the walls

Me & Sophie are being socialised
In to something that fills us with angst
We’ve got butterfly stomachs & sleepless nights
Coz we daren’t leave nothing to chance
So Sophie’s vaping with a slight of hand
Whilst I’m necking the Gaviscon
I feel like I’m sinking from over-thinking
So afraid of doing something wrong 

We’re just gadding about from 9 to 5
Feeling like the Wizard of Oz
Gadding it, blagging it, living a lie 
Trying to pull the whole thing off
Trying to hide this imposter syndrome…
