Lyrics

THINGS WITH HEADS

Speaking of Last Things
(Indulge me here will ya?)
I’m full of mineral calm - or a fire with seven alarms
(I’ll make a tune then I’ll bill ya)
There’s a an expanse of confusion between the cretin and the stars:
struggling with a new way to convey (so to say):
‘how fine,how fresh the roses are..’

I’m just a thing with a head
standing here in the sun
I’m a face on a stick going clickety-click
I have a whole lot of fun

and you’re amazing, yeah you are!
you found a theme and you worked it
it was very clear-eyed, it was quite dignified
you found a chicken and Jerked it.
But me, I’m loaded for bear
for Moth-Ra and Godzilla
‘cos i swear that the risk you insist don’t exist
will be the the one that will kill ya

You’re just a Thing with a Head
Driving past in the car
A smiley face on a sphere
that will soon disappear
We can all see what you are

You’re something with a Head
moving onto the floor….
you’re not incredibly sound
you like dicking around
- come on let’s do it some more!

Please don’t look through our garbage
it could be quite compromising
what with all of our waste and our terrible taste
it doesn’t bear analysing

we’re all drooling and shouting
we’re barely using this noodle
while good ol’ Lucifer’s spawn got their tanks on our lawn
the whole kit and kaboodle….

WE’RE JUST THINGS WITH HEADS
Punch n’ Judy live action
maximum banging around
with a resonant sound
to our own satisfaction

I’m just a thing with a head
standing here in the sun
I’m just a blob on a stick going clickety-click
I have a whole lot of fun…
