Dainties in a jam-jar, parson's colour in the sky.
|
Water in a fountain doesn't get me very high.
|
Moby Dick and Albert making out with Captain Bligh.
|
So you know what you know in your head.
|
Will you, won't you, do you, don't you know when a head's dead?
|
What a bringdown!
|
|
Winter leader Lou is grownin' 'Ampsteads in the North.
|
Betty B's been wearin' daisies since the twenty-fourth.
|
Wears a gunner when there's one more coming forth.
|
And you know what you know in your head.
|
Will you, won't you, do you, don't you wanna go to bed?
|
What a bringdown!
|
|
There's a tea-leaf about in the family,
|
Full of nothin' their fairy tale.
|
There's a tea-leaf a-floatin' now for Rosalie,
|
They'll believe in ding-dong bell.
|
|
Take a butchers at the dodginesses of old Bill.
|
Aristotle's orchestra are living on the pill.
|
One of them gets very very prickly when he's ill.
|
And you know what you know in your head.
|
Will you, won't you, do you, don't you wanna make more bread?
|
What a bringdown!
