The Cloth 2

Did you believe those things

We read in the papers?

And never mind that, can you meet me

Down at the Time Warp tonight?

Oh you look divine

That suit would get you into anywhere

Tonight I'll be, as you can see

The idol of an island far, far away

A man of straw in cloth of gold

Look into his eyes at the days of old

And bow to the cloth

And bow to the cloth

Can you believe those things

We've seen in the papers?

And never mind that, can you get

To the bar before the next egg starts?

The word goes 'round the eyes of a wife

And magazines with shiny pages

And my hay-head where will it stop?

And the boys in the shop continue to bop

A man of straw in cloth of gold

Look into his eyes to the days of old

And bow to the cloth

Bow to the cloth

Heading down, getting further down

And we've hit an iceburg

But I don't care what the people think

I will drink and drink till the damn ship sinks

A man of straw in cloth of gold

Look into his eyes to the days of old

A drowing man in a metal coat

The prince has fallen into the moat

To the cloth, to the cloth
