"Forever Wondering" is a song by Gilbert O'Sullivan, released in 1980. The song explores the narrator's constant worries and troubles in life. It begins with the narrator waking up late for work, fearing the consequences from his boss. He expresses his ongoing concerns and wonders if there will ever be an end to his worries. The song then shifts focus to the narrator's girlfriend, Susan, who tragically died while getting off a bus at Marble Arch. The narrator questions why such a thing would happen to someone like Susan. This event only adds to his worries and leaves him forever wondering about the unpredictability and unfairness of life. Despite all his troubles, the narrator asserts that he is not losing his mind, even though he may feel inclined to do so. He emphasizes that he is not one to succumb to his worries easily and has no head for heights, implying that he won't let his troubles overwhelm him. The lyrics take a slightly sarcastic turn as the narrator addresses the listener, challenging them to compare their troubles to his own. He recounts an absurd situation of receiving a parking fine while being a pedestrian, highlighting the absurdity of his circumstances. In a humorous twist, he even comments on the idea of using a cat for a curry plate, expressing his underlying frustration and disbelief. The song concludes with the narrator sharing a personal health issue. He visits a doctor to seek answers, only to be told that even the doctor doesn't know what's wrong. This further adds to his worries and leaves him forever wondering about his own well-being. Overall, "Forever Wondering" portrays a sense of frustration, uncertainty, and a questioning of life's unfairness and unpredictability. The song conveys the human experience of dealing with problems and anxieties, while also injecting some humor to lighten the mood.
