I was hoppin' mad, I was hoppin' mean

I've seen all of opera and I'm not impressed at all

And there the sharp window outers to me just looked the same
...
'Cause at this moment in time there's nothing sudden
...
Ooooh, see it's a funny thing when it falls upon you
But I know as much as the day I was born and
Though that was the last time my a**e will stay and
...
And when you're knocked on your back an' you loves a butt
And when you're done on the bottom there's nothing else
But to shart to the top
Original Lyrics:
I was half in mind, I was half in need
...
I've seen all on offer and I'm not impressed at all
...
And every shop window I looked in just looked the same
...
'Cause at this moment in time there's nothing certain
...
Ooooh, see it's a frightening thing when it dawns upon you
That I know as much as the day I was born
And though I wasn't asked I might as well stay and
...
When you're knocked on your back an' your life's a flop
And when you're down on the bottom there's nothing else
But to shout to the top
