Seven Deadly Finns |
|
oh oh the french girls with the string of pearls |
|
Think it's such a fucking shame |
|
That the local boys with their country joys |
|
Never make them daisy chains |
|
They're swapping disappointing incidents |
|
While at the docks another ship pulls in |
|
And suddenly the door breaks down (ooh la la) |
|
It's the seven deadly finns |
|
Oh oh oh soldiers and sailors |
|
Have all been here before |
|
Gigolos and governments |
|
Have stumbled through that door |
|
Because they need all those french girls with all their kiss curls |
|
And powder in their guns |
|
And the seven finns with their deadly grins |
|
Tend to measure beauty in tuns. |
|
The first is a freak with a masochistic streak |
|
And the second is a kitten up a tree |
|
The third is a flirt with an awful print skirt |
|
And the fourth is pretending to be me |
|
The fifth wears a mac and never turns his back |
|
The sixth never shows his eyes |
|
But the seventh deadly finn is so tall and slim |
|
He shoulda never been with those guys. |
|
Although variety's the spice of life |
|
A steady rhythm is the source |
|
Simplicity's the crucial thing |
|
Systemically of course (work it all out like norbert wiener) |
|
So if those french girls say to you |
|
'would you like your ashes piped ?' |
|
You'll have to take their word for it |
|
It's the only thing to take... |
