Mechanical Bliss

Mechanical bliss is striking me for what I believe in

A ribbon on the line, and getting in and getting out

Huh, huh, huh... huh, huh huh

Was not like this

No, mechanical bliss was not like this at all

The ribbon on the line, and getting in and getting out was not like this

Was not like this, was not like this

Caruthers and Smith said that they couldn't come at all

They said that their backs were up against the wall

And getting in and getting out was not like this

Was not like this, was not like this

But a flash of the list, the flick of a switch

A flick of a switch, you gave me a kiss, I couldn't resist

No ooo mechanical bliss

Now Ponsonby-Smith said he really didn't care

About Neville and Chippy who really wasn't there

And getting in and getting out was not like this

Was not like this

He's out in the sun, he's sucking his thumb

He's talking to hum, ahhh mechanical bliss

Mechanical bliss will not like this, mechanical bliss was not like this at all

The ribbon on the line and getting in and getting out was not like this

Was never, never like this

I couldn't resist the flash of the list

A flick of the switch, the lisp

He talked in a lisp

You gave me a kiss

You talked in a lisp

You talked in a liiiiiii eh eh eh sp

Mechanical bliss

Oh, no, no, no, no, no

Nah, nah, nah, nah nah

Dah, da , dah, dah, dah, dah do

SCAT!

Dah, da , dah, dah, dah, dah do

O.K. Chaps, stiff upper lip!
