Slacks, coffee trend
I could have been in the US navy
Flapping grey, coffee smoke
I could have been in another nineteen-fifty
Where the hell were you?
Rough stencil, print music
Cardboard, cardboard, cardboard, cardboard, cardboard coffee
Saxophone mention barbers, N.Y.
The cigarette was burning, the flat shoes
Stool
Bongo, coffee, don't mention that black man
The leather-coat was his
Where was she?
Could have been in the US navy
Flow beating air, table-top, shoulder slung
Shore leave, no sailors here
Cardboard, cardboard, cardboard, cardboard
Liquor slacks twisting
The cigarette was burning
The flat shoes, the flat shoes, the flat shoes
Bird, bird, bird, bird
I could have been in another nineteen-fifty
Bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird
Bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird, bird
I could have been in another nineteen-fifty

Well, let me tell you about my girlie

Since she learned how to do the Cairo
And she goUp up down down
Up up down downShe pours out the sand on the kitchen floor
Then we start to camel through the living room door
She was cool to me, but now her heart's afiro
Since she learned how to do the Cairo
And she goThe Rotary

I'm warning you
I'm warning you now
Look out people as it's the holy cow
It's the rotary
I told you 'bout the spinning top
And that's a dance you gotta drop
Because the rotary is in
The rotary, the rotary
The dance you've got to top is the brand-new spinning top
That's out, this is the rotary
The rotary
This is a thing that's definitely gonna make Captain Beefheart
and His Magic Band look bad
They thought they had it with the "blimp"
Well I'm talking to you about the rotary
People will be coming, will be twirling, twirling, twirling, twirling
The rotary
You can jump it, I can jump it
Everybody can jump it
Grab an armadillo, grab your husband, grab anybody
The rotary
The rotary, the rotary, oh, the rotary
It's the thing that's for me and you
Ooh, ooh, the rotary
I can see the precision
They're lining up, falling over
They're going crazy
They can't get enough of the rotary
Yes, siree
The rotary
Turning, turning, turning, turning...
You're burning, burning, burning...
With the rotary, ooh
Yes, siree
The rotary
I shouldn't want you to get this confused with any other dance craze
Because this is the one
Oh, the rotary
You'll be burning all your clothes
And you'll be burning all of your jewellery
You will be the rotary
It's nothing like anarchy
No, siree
It's, it's the rotary
The rotary, the rotary...
R.O.T.A.R.Y.
Rotary, the rotary
You'll want to do it, do it with me
You'll want to do it, you can do it for free
The rotary
Go on Terry, play the rotary
How do you think he got the second half of his name?
Terry is the last part of Rotary
Drum it up, drum it up...Madhattan
I Sit In The Snow
Thanks to Erich Sellheim <sellheim@zfn.uni-bremen.de>
I sit in the snow
The town lights aglow
The air is alight
We drown in the nightWork Away Tokyo Day
New Broom
Thanks to Erich Sellheim <sellheim@zfn.uni-bremen.de>
We need a new broom
To sweep it all clean
We need a beat boom
We need a new scheme
Break all the deadlocks
And spill all the beer
Mr Ditko was right
Mr A so near
Break out the paints and the brushes
And spill out your hearts
No amount of soft soap
Can ever give you a fresh start
We are walking on a tight rope
We can slip beyond religion
The answer's in your cranium
And not on independent television
