Is among the stars
On the Red Carpet tonight
And she's dressed to thrill
And she's dressed to thrill
But belongs to another
Never to be mine
Never to be mine
The sporty Porsche, Lear Jet,
Or luxury yacht.
Oar, luxury yacht;
Two things seemingly at odds.
Better than walking.
Better than walking
It is to ride. But walking's
Better than nothing.
Better than nothing.
Mere illusions of Being;
subatomic void.
Subatomic void:
Crucible of science and
Micro singing spheres.
Micro singing spheres
Minuscule noisy bubbles
I wish they'd shut up
I wish they'd shut up;
those tiny little voices
I hear in the dark.
I hear in the dark
Quite well, but cannot see, so
Please put on the light.
Please put on the light
I can only find one sock
And damn! Where's me shirt?
And damn! Where's me shirt?
The Fulham shirt, a white one -
I can't wear Chelsea!
I can't wear Chelsea...
And I can't sing very well
But I'll drink that scotch.
But I'll drink that Scotch
Single malt whisky from Spey-
Side with your mother.
Side with your mother!
She's got the wisdom; you don't.
Revere your elders.
Revere your elders
Filial piety's good--
Else get a thick ear
Else, get a thick ear
For Ern, 'e's taking the part
Of Big Ears today.
Of Big Ears today,
No word. His wife, however,
Will not stop talking.
Will not stop talking,
You say? We'll see about that.
Copy it all down.
Copy it all down
Far too much to commit to
Short term memory
