After my episode I went to my wife -
the gal to whom I pledged the rest of my life.
I said I'm here for you now, let's reconcile.
Her new boyfriend walked in and shot me a smile.

"No way, no way, there isn't any way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, there isn't any way
No way, no way, no way"

The U of Auckland was like my second home.
After my head was clear I picked up the phone.
I begged to get back in the field that I led
I reached the chancellor and here's what he said:

"No way, no way, there isn't any way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, there isn't any way
No way, no way, no way"

My daughter studied mental illness firsthand.
I thought if anyone she would understand.
I travelled to the institute where she worked.
She married, changed her name and left no forwarding address.

"No way, no way, there isn't any way
No way, no way, no way
No way, no way, there isn't any way
No way, no way, no way"

My life is shattered, that doesn't matter -
nobody cares that I'm all better now.
