We are the 801
|
We are the central shaft
|
|
|
And we are here to let you take advantage
|
Of our lack of craft
|
Certain streets have certain corners
|
Sooner or later we'll turn your.
|
|
|
We are the 801
|
We are the central shaft
|
|
|
And thus throughout two years we've crossed the ocean
|
In our little craft (row, row, row)
|
Now we're on the telephone
|
Making final arrangements (ding, ding)
|
|
|
We are the 801
|
We are the central shaft
|
|
|
Looking for a certain ratio
|
Someone must have left it underneath the carpet
|
Looking up and down the radio
|
Oh, oh, nothing there this time
|
Looking for a certain ratio
|
Someone said they saw it parking in a car lot
|
Looking up and down the radio
|
Oh, oh, nothing there this time
|
Going back down to the rodeo
|
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, here we go!
|
|
|
We are the table the captain's table let's get it understood
|
Let's get it understood
|
We are the losers we are the cruisers let's get it understood
|
Let's get it understood
|
We are the diners the final diners let's get it understood
|
Let's get it understood
|
Most of us are tinkers, some of us tailors
|
And we've got candlesticks and lots of cocktail sticks
|
We saw the lovers the modern lovers and they looked very good
|
They looked as if they could
|
We are the neighbours the nosy neighbours we think just like you would
|
We think just like you should.
