Lyrics
The house is just twelve years old Soft landscaping in the garden An electrician stuck his finger in the plug hole And shouted "Yabba" Her hippo Every day he's a dick Strong one, no-one The man above, a name, a word I get upset in the heat I'm smiling constantly And people constantly step on me His shadow looms around A feeling of bees' legs on my face Safe inside your secret love Let's run Anyway, mystical Shakespeare shoes A trapped person screaming The last thing I looked at in this hand mirror Was a human asshole Well, Helen's situation Has really put all that in the shade now There he goes, he doesn't care Mostly angry, scrappy songs And where does that romantic jealousy come from Te amo Manuel Married then Her hippo Every day he's a dick Strong one, great one The man above, a name, a word I'm smiling constantly And people constantly step on me I'd like to run away with you on a plane But, don't bring those loafers That silly woman has done a too straight fringe Her baby's appearance More espresso, less depresso Solutions for damp since 1971 But I can rebuild I'm a devious snake And I keep it in my wig room Well, well, well, well Well, well, well And inside the gate There's a tiny little area and it's round Everything's going great so far Got my shorts on in preparation for the hot These idiots in trousers, they don't know what they're doing Feel like I'm going to send you twenty texts Let me know when you're inside the plane I'm smiling constantly And people constantly step on me
