Wireless enthusiast intercepts government secret radio band and
uncovers secrets and scandals of deceitful type proportions. Aghast goes next door to his neighbor, secretly excited, as aforementioned was a hunter whom radio enthusiast wanted friendship and favor of. A new face in hell Nearly a new face in hell! A muscular, thick-skinned, slit-eyed neighbor is at the table poisoned just thirty seconds before by parties who knew of wireless operator's forthcoming revelation. A new face in hell! A prickly line of sweat covers enthusiast's forehead as the realization hits him that the same government him and his now dead neighbor voted for and backed and talked of on cream porches have tricked him into their war against the people who enthusiast and dead hunter would have wished torture on. A servant of government walks in and arrests wireless fan in kitchen for murder of his neighbor A new face in hell! The dead cannot contradict Sometimes the living cannot A new face in hell! |

Before you go out? But I say happy memories Leave a bitter taste I need a good brainwash agent To cut out this present shout of: Do y'know what you look like Before you go out? That's why you eat crap food That's why nobody talks to you That's why you messed up everything you do Do y'know what you look like Before you go out? Look Know Look He was the first one to wear a flying jacket and go to a club And she has the general policy of not being seen dead in a pub Straight-leg jeans when she goes out There's a microbe attached to their brains that itches And gives a morning shout Do y'know what you look like Before you go out? But I say happy memories leave a bitter taste I got a prison in me Our bodies weren't made for times like these I always have a wash And that's enough Do y'know what you look like Before you go out? You gotta know what you look like nowadays Before you go out Or some existential crap will write about you They say don't drink alcohol! You gotta know what you look like, oh! Before you go out Know, look, look But I say get it down yer neck Ein beer And I will you and you attack attack Pure Satre food Catchment club Do y'know what you look like Before you go out?

Couldn't get ahead
I just couldn't get ahead Come out of pub, the shop is closed Come out of pub, Harry wants to know When the next bus is I said five or ten minutes I had my change in my hands The bus flashes past. My hands are caught Couldn't get ahead. I just couldn't get ahead. In a week, earned money for month Got all my jobs done My eyelids were sick of it Gist was I could sleep for a day? But bad bills have no respect for a decent man's rest Flopping on the doorstep Outlined in color red Couldn't get ahead. Just couldn't get ahead. On an Asiatic plane with wings not of the grain Toilet queue was endless Couldn't get a beer The hostesses were muslims When I get in toilet, Light flashes: "Return to seat." I feared withdrawal And I feared beer was making sludge of my head. Couldn't get ahead. Just couldn't get ahead. Now my problems are solved It's a remedy of old I pretend I'm blind you see Put on some Armani clothes And act like ET Where I'm at is a cabbage patch, no longer strewn with weeds Have a Ghandi at me Colour mags wish me well No more, no get ahead. Couldn't get ahead. Just couldn't get ahead. |

The man who's head expanded.
The man whose head expanded was corrupted by Mr. Sociological memory. Was corrupted by Mr. Sociological Memory Man. Could not get a carrier bag for love nor money. The man whose head expanded. Sounds like hick wap huh? Sounds like hick wap huh? Over. Over. Over. Over. The man who's head expanded. The soap opera writer, would follow him around and use his jewels for T.V. prime time. The man who's head expanded. Turn that bloody blimey space invader off! The man who's head expanded explained: The scriptwriter would follow him around, of this he was convinced. It was no coincidence. The lager seemed poisoned. It was no matter of small consequence. No little pub incidence. A red faced post- 'Jolly Grapes' would steal his jewels, and put them in the mouths of Vic. actor fools. Of this he was convinced. Sounds like hick wap huh? Sounds like a load of mick wap ha? Over. Over. Over. Over. The man whose head expanded. The man whose head expanded. Does not want to appear illiterate. Crack! Crack! Does not want to appear illiterate. Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

Look under
Look under From the hotbed of creation in dreamstate. The cure, bulletin, zeitung Was in no pill. Look under. The cure was in no pill. The German athletic star was continually ill. For months doctors were puzzled. The star would complain of the smell in his room. On visiting him this was found to be true. An odor resembling hot-dogs permeated the whole bedroom. A solution was only discovered by my closely watching his brother Gert. Gert was handsome, well-meaning, but slightly a careless type. Not malicious, I hope you understand and grasp. No chance. But on returning from his clerical job, Gert would park his Volkswagen at the end of the day willy-nilly in the driveway, usually the wrong way round, so that the exhaust fumes would flow upwards right through the open windows of the athletic star's upstairs bedroom. (carburettor) I also discovered that Gert would turn his engine over for up to an hour. I don't know why. Citizens in my street are also partial to this. Look under. The cure was in no pill. Obtaining a new parking space for Gert's motor-car, athletic star soon recovered. Unfortunately, this being East Germany, Gert patriotically volunteered to be sent on a labor beautification course of the countryside north-west of Dresden. And never seen again. And never seen again. Look under. The cure was in no pill. Had to look under the window sill. The window sill. Look under. The cure was in no pill. Had to look under the window sill. The window sill. From certain facts you have to go on and further and often it is better to go around or look under. the windowsill etc.. etc.. |

At my feet, one who laughs at anything. And at my head, one that laughs at nothing And I'm just in-between This day's portion Service (You would not like it if you knew it) (Why you have tears in your eyes from infotainment?) Winter is here I've got a witch on my left shoulder My future's here Now I will kick the broken branches They're this day's portion of this day's portion Didn't want to wake up and learn, I've learnt the word 'entrepreneur" Wandered around, found out, Didn't want to say the word, roll it around in your mouth Every man jack wants to be what he is not. Service. Little boys are taking over They mumble through the grass There are not fit to be in the company of vulperines and wolverines Too many heads knocking about. Service.

But you'd think a country man would understand the devil makes work for idle hands. M5 6-7 pm And the man who pretends he knows it all is destined to a Mighty Fall. Gets into your house with cheer, then proceeds to take all you've got to offer. This is not an autobahn It's an evil roundabout That leads to the Haywain And you'll never see good trains again. In late 60s, my daddy said to me, you'll never see trams and clogs again. Now they roam the city. Can these people not understand The devil makes work for idle hands M5 6-7 pm The devil makes work for idle hands.

And I stick my Parker pen under my ear Beneath my own carefully scruffed hair.

Don't think he's don't get in slippy North-old-hamptonshire. I believe there's a new drug out. It's called speed I wrote a song about it Conceptually a la Bowie. But it's been lost in the vaults of the record company By our manager So instead our new 45 is 'Girlies' (Eckides) on, brown tonguer Yours, brattingly. Everyone says "please" Anyway is a waste of life Wait to say it in Lancashire You Pep! You had the best summer And now it's wearing off. No more excuses For your traitorism. |

Heeeey! hey! hey! hey!
Well everyone you meet, In the pubs and on the street Is touch sensitive. Don't frown and you're a creep If you smile you're a liar If you don't say it's bitter cold You're drunken, too. {hey! hey! hey! hey! .... hey! hey! hey! hey!} They say what about the money? But I think that I'm industry [in the street? ] I think they've got a bloody cheeck. I'm livin' in a pawnshop weekly [in delia's] What don't want a little kip Yeah! {they're touch sensitive.} {hey! hey! hey! hey!) Touch sensitive Old people worry about the milk But in the street they call you filth. Houses line up Volume tremors Pass down your barber till your carrot speaks Stand back and laugh. You are burstin' for a pee So you go behind a tree Two coppers followed safe That as will be the end The best thing is to stay home And have a wank. |

I was walking through the jungle just the other night
When I heard a big rumble and I thought it was a fight I lost all volition and began to move my feet It was a jungle drummer doing a knock down beat It was a jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock A knock down beat and a chucked down set It was a jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Well I moved a little closer just to get a better view I saw a chimp and a monkey getting in a taxi queue A hippo Jurassic Park we'll do it on the hop Well the big big bounce was making me hop It was a jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock And a knock down beat with a hip hop on my feet It was a jungle jungle jungle jungle rock And the fox grabbed the rabbit and they did the bunny hug And all the beasts standing were cutting a rug And the camel was talking to a special contibutor And the elephant and the monkey did the ring dang do It was a jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Jungle jungle jungle jungle rock Shot down beat and a hip hop on my feet It was a jungle jungle jungle jungle rock I was walking through the jungle just the other night And the blues songs were pumping it white |
