The Tiki Ceramic

from Any Questions by Laurie Shaw

/

lyrics

Here comes Mr. Signature Dish
Writing a vampire novel on the duotone board
Always nice to see you cultivating hair pin bends
Who’s behind the curtain?
Who’s the very special friend?
Cutting the mustard
Trip hazard stripes were the last thing on mind last night
That was my downfall (at least I can admit it)

Mr. Highwire Act sacked his assistant
Brought in the card cheat
What a palarva!
Who’s in the hot tub
Chilling the carva?
I’m in the glove box
Exciting the riff raff
All joking aside
Ta for the ride!
And the great jokes

When we got to the water
Strangers were swimming
Out to the island where there’s landlines in the chalets
Backless concealers
Hiding your purchase
Stick and pokes of Robbie Williams verses
That’s for the tip pot
Compliments to the Little Chef on the A41

Hurry back
I haven’t got the knack with this ordering system
Birthday boy is sweet talking servers
It’s the tiki ceramics
It’s the totem pole grimace
And the faces of dread
On the fake island fauna
But the upholstery’s top notch

But at what terrible cost?
He’s a playboy of inland europe
An economic collosus
Lift the colloshes and call me when the course is done


And all of the great things he’s done
All of the great things he’s done
All of the great things he’s done
