Scuttling, Never Knowing

from Nudibranch by Muddy Suzuki

/

lyrics

Why did I do that?
What was the main compulsion?
Wearing a Dutch cap,
swimming in raw emulsion.
Walking around nude,
thumbing a lift to Swindon.
Miming to Hey Jude.
Surfing with Donald Sinden.
He's got a pair of clogs that don't fit.
He's got a pair of dogs that won't sit.
Try as he might, he can't make them sit.
They just bark and run away.

Pinnocchio lies, knowing his nose is growing,
Watching the blind mice scuttling, never knowing.

Laugh in the face of adversity.
Chortle away to infinity.
Play down the fact that people can't believe just how stupid you are.

Stand up straight like an elevator.
Walk in circles, you perambulator.
She's alright, I don't really hate her.
Don't ask why and I'll tell you later.
Keep your foot on the accelerator.
Dress up smartly like an alligator.
Buy some dentures from the undertaker.
This food's poxy! I'll inform the waiter.
