(Heaton/Rotheray)
|
Birds are singing in the trees
|
As we rise up on a beautiful morning
|
But I can't hear
|
That beautiful sound
|
Because I'm permanently yawning
|
|
What about the time of the fancy dress
|
When you came dressed as your mum
|
And there I was splendid in my penguin suit
|
So scared to show my bill
|
|
You must have been listening to your Carousel
|
Your Carousel, that Carousel
|
|
Remember the time
|
When I turned the house into a rocket ship
|
And you refused to come to Mars
|
You said "It's too far"
|
You had to be back by six to watch your Carousel
|
Saturn's much too far
|
You had to watch Carousel (What's going on in there?)
|
|
When we first met
|
I asked you for your hand
|
I didn't really mean that hand
|
I meant join hands
|
Bake phallic cake (Bake phallic cake)
|
Carry round sticky tape
|
And love those devil dogs
|
Be an Indian elephant (Be an Indian elephant)
|
Bait straight people
|
But you must have missed my wink
|
You must have missed my wink
|
|
(I love you,
|
But you're boring, you know,
|
I really do love you
|
But you're so particularly boring)
|
|
Maybe you were too busy listening to Carousel
|
watching Carousel, living Carousel
|
You were listening to Carousel
|
You were watching Carousel
|
