Sitting on my ass;
leading my jenny and mule
into the stable.
into the stable
where I laid my tired body
softly onto straw
Softly onto straw
Golden fields of wheat astrew
In a shining sun
In a shining sun
There lurks a living thing, or
So finds Doctor Who.
So finds Doctor Who
a shiny silver nickel.
Then he picked it up.
Then he picked it up,
A shiny nickel that was
Dropped by Timberbranch.
Dropped by Timberbranch,
College classes, ex-grilfriends,
These were dropped by me.
These were dropped by me:
Heavy hints and terrible
Clangers; one boyfriend.
Then he picked it up
Hurtling apace so frenzied
Turtle carapaces.
Clangers; one boyfriend.
Mr Beau Jangles befriends
Other instruments.
Other instruments
Can blare and squeak, not pianos.
Turtle carapaces?
Turtle carapaces
Just don't bear thinking about
So let's not do it.
So let's not do it.
Or we can turn the lights off.
Where's that paper bag?
Where's that paper bag?
The one with the blue logo?
I need to find it!
I need to find it!
Where is the best place to look?
I'll go check Ebay.
I'll go check eBay
For the vintage trouser suit
And the Biba hag.
And the Biba hag
stared me down, disrespecting
my style, and my life.
my style, and my life
can be my ultimate dream
for you my darling
For you my darling
Darkling glances penetrate
Risible the stairs
Risible the stairs
Into unknown lands I go
Sweetheart be my guide
Sweetheart be my guide.
I always seem to trip up
on that primrose path.
