Lyrics for An Englishman In New York by Godley And Creme:
| | | Artist: | Godley And Creme |
| | Album: | Freeze Frame | | Track: | An Englishman In New York | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 71 | | | | Lyrics: | Demented New York athletes staggering round the block
Deforned Chicanos pour in, Chicago's
rolling stock
Digital bathrooms drilling for furs
Surgical stockings marked his and
hers
Guggenheim attitudes back to back
With Jewish Baroque
No way
street
No way street
Happy to see you, have a nice day!
Defecting Russian
dancers dance into Hockney prints
Exclusive to Bloomingdales, gift-wrapped in red
From the
land of blue rinse
They boggle at menus in Olde English verse
"Ode to burger" by Keats at
his worst
The hissing of omelettes the breaking of legs
Don't shoot till you see the
whites of their eggs
The pink fillet mignon looks black on the negs
Strange
apparatus
You've never seen
Strange apparatus, even stranger theme
Street
alligators
Big Anglophile
Will navigate us through a change of style
I came, I
saw, what manner of beast is this
New York, you talk a little bit left of centre
A scream,
a shout
New York is throwing its weight about
Walk tall, walk straight, spit the world
right in the eye
The stranger the wood the straighter the arrow
Dismembered hopeful My-Lai
veterans queuing for sleaze
"Sorry no dogs, no fags, no shriners, and no amputees"
Sexual
athlete applies for audition
Willing to make it in any position
Just one of the extras
with blood on their faces
In snow-white and the seven basket cases
I'm happy and dopey and
dirty in places
No way street
No way street
Lock up your daughters, Avon
crawling!
Devoted collectors of paraphernalia out walking the rock
Battle and bitch
for the ultimate kitch
of a crucifix clock
Two miniature romans, running on
rails
Appear every hour and bang in the nails
I've got to have it, Christ, I gotta be the
first
on our block
Disturbing facts about Nazi splinter groups seen on the
news
They're picketing synagogues and claiming that
Hitler was King of the
Jews
Caught in the tunnel an ambulance howls
A men's room attendant is flapping his
jowls
Ssshh, Howard Johnson is moving his bowels
Strange apparatus
You've never
seen
Strange apparatus, even stranger theme
Street alligators
Big
Anglophile
Will navigate us through a change of style
Strange apparatus
You've never
seen
Strange apparatus, even stranger theme
Walk straight, walk tall, spit the world right
in the eye
The stranger the wood, the straighter the arrow
No way street
No way
