Misheard Lyrics:
But her money is gelding gold
And her daddy has told her to go
~
But the film is a satin ball
'Cause she's looked it ten times or more
She could spreaden the eyes a foot
As they ask her go for some
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakier show
Take a look at the old man
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the rest of the show
~
It's all America's told, you're brown
Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers are strung for pain
Lemons on sale again
See them mising their mill and halls
From I be there to the north of Paul
We'll pretend you're as out of bounds
Tell my mother my darkened clown
But the film is all satin ball
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be red again
As I ask you to go for some sailors
And her daddy has told her to go
~
But the film is a satin ball
'Cause she's looked it ten times or more
She could spreaden the eyes a foot
As they ask her go for some
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakier show
Take a look at the old man
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the rest of the show
~
It's all America's told, you're brown
Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers are strung for pain
Lemons on sale again
See them mising their mill and halls
From I be there to the north of Paul
We'll pretend you're as out of bounds
Tell my mother my darkened clown
But the film is all satin ball
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be red again
As I ask you to go for some sailors
Original Lyrics:
Her mummy is yelling "No"
And her daddy has told her to go
~
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
~
It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lenin's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds to
My mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on sailors
And her daddy has told her to go
~
But the film is a saddening bore
For she's lived it ten times or more
She could spit in the eyes of fools
As they ask her to focus on
Sailors fighting in the dance hall
Oh man! Look at those cavemen go
It's the freakiest show
Take a look at the lawman
Beating up the wrong guy
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
~
It's on America's tortured brow
That Mickey Mouse has grown up a cow
Now the workers have struck for fame
'Cause Lenin's on sale again
See the mice in their million hordes
From Ibiza to the Norfolk Broads
Rule Britannia is out of bounds to
My mother, my dog, and clowns
But the film is a saddening bore
'Cause I wrote it ten times or more
It's about to be writ again
As I ask you to focus on sailors
