Fantastic Life

Got eighteen months for espionage

Too much brandy for breakfast

And people tend to let you down

It's a swine

Fantastic life

Dole penicillin to eastern ching plague-ridden

And one thing I have found

What you cast out will hit back

And a man will find he has to deny his

Fantastic life

Ours is not to look back

Ours is to continue the crack

Met a 54 year old dustbin man

And '48 he'd been in Jerusalem

Sold surplus oil to Arab fighters

For M-cocktails to burn Jewish terrorists

What a turn-up!

Fantastic life

Style's too easy to buy nowadays

And there's interference with the mail

And you just can't get out the words

Some people think if they had a job they'd be well

Now!

A fantastic lie!

The Siberian mushroom Santa

Was in fact Rasputin's brother

And he didst walk round Whitechapel

To further the religion of forgiven sin murder

Fantastic lie!

No lie, friend called David

He said he had a barney on Corporation Street

He said he told the policeman what he really thought

But knowing him I don't believe that crap

A Fantastic lie

And I just thought I'd tell you

And I just thought I'd tell you

About fantastic life

And I just thought I'd tell you

Some fantastic lies

And I just thought I'd tell you

And I just thought I'd tell you

I walked right (West) round Wakefield Jail

A fantastic life

And I just thought I'd tell you

And I just thought I'd tell you
