Coins in vinegar it's back again
Carrying nosegays it's back again
Small children have got the plague?
They're coughing like smokers
They've got the plague
Boris Johnson he's got the plague
Intensive care he's got the plague
Stocking up bog roll 21 days
21 days cos he might have the plague
Dominic Cummings - what a cunt - that's all
No gigs for you mate, no way
Well I didn't have any gigs anyway
Bog roll bog roll bog roll cheesecake
Sandwich mayonnaise hand wash STEAK BAKE
Take your daily exercise
Plague hands plague face
Bat pangolin bat pangolin human bat pangolin bat pangolin human
Over to Donald . . .

Hayfever
02:13
|

|
Summer's coming and the light stays late
Warm breezes blow your clouds away
Blue is coming to your skies of grey
No matter what you do or say
Haymaking in the blazing sun
No waiting for the rain to come
Swallows flying in an azure sky
River swimming in the evening time
Fruit hanging from the cherry trees
Shame the pollen makes you sneeze like a BASTARD

Dawn's arriving
Mojo driving
Black cat waking
Ether spraying
I feel really key
I feel really keenly
Where's my mojo?
Waters rising
Where's my black cat bone?
Timber burning
I feel really key
I feel really keenly
Once upon a time, there was nothing

Ooh baby baby you know you're driving mi crayfish wild
Ooh baby baby you know mi crayfish is really wild
Five to six, three to four
Crayfish walking out the door
Two to four, six to eight
Crayfish seem to hesitate
Two to four, nine to ten
Crayfish walking back again
Five to two, two to one
Crayfish want to have some fun
Ooh baby baby you know his wildness is off the scale

The green grass revealed a tableau of knights with barbaric wounds
The white snow revealed that they fell fifty feet and froze
And the lights are all going out in Simonstown
I can't see them anyway I'm trapped on my cellphone
The alluvian revealed they carted outside cinder and soil
The slag heaps reveal we're cooking ourselves it's there in the cores
And the lights are all going out in Simonstown
I can't seem to plan no more I'm trapped on my cellphone

Sleep my little darling oh sleep my little bean
Doc won't prescribe me no valium pills
Doc won't prescribe me no temazepam pills
Doc won't buy me no valium pills
Doc won't prescribe me no temazepam pills
Sleep my little darling oh sleep my little bean
My head feels like concrete and I can't think straight at all
Doc won't prescribe me no valium pills
Doc won't prescribe me no temazepam pills
Doc won't buy me no valium pills
Doc won't prescribe me no temazepam pills

He had folk music coming out of his eyes in the 1970s
He had folk music coming out of his ears in the 1970s
He had folk music coming out of his eyes in the 1970s
Folk music folk music
He had Pentangle blowing out of his eyes in the 1970s
He had Dando Shaft blowing into his ears in the 1970s
He had the Bothy Band and Planxty blowing his mind in the 1970s
He had Paddy Keenan!
So there he is, with a big bag of acid to sell at the 1970 Isle of Wight music festival with Jimi Hendrix
Woken up far too early big knocking on the door, runs to the front of the house looks outside
Oh my God there's policemen everywhere!
So he runs to the back of the house looking out over the yard, thinks I'll throw the stuff out into the yard but there's coppers in the yard as well
Now they're through the front door, they're coming up the stairs - he's looking at spending the summer in jail
So he necks the fucking lot
He had octopi crawling out of the walls in the 1970s
He had airfish spewing out golden sound in the 1970s
He could see the wind and taste the sky in the 1970s
And all around him strange things crawled in the 1970s
Spent two days in the cells, octopi crawling out of the walls, spaceships coming down from venus to take him away
He didn't know if he was God, they were God, the policemen were God - in the end they had to let him go
Well, they had to, cos he was God

I'm on the run from the government
You'll never see me in the daytime
I've got a crick in my neck now
From checking out the skyline
Wires. Blood on the wires.
I've got mates on YouTube
Russian bots on Facebook
I'm on the run from the government
They gonna put me in a gulag
Wires. Blood on the wires.
I've been living off pigeon
Sharing water with the pondlife
I'm on the run from the government
Snipers following
I've been channelling Deakin
I've got to find a holloway
I'm on the run from the government
Don't you ever call me paranoid

The Liver Is Evil
03:02
|

|
So here you are, feeling slightly unusual
Kicking up a stink behind the bins
Trying to find a new way through the wall
Crying out to all around
The liver is evil and must be punished
You can't go home, it's still dark
The liver is evil and must be punished
Speeding your tits off by the canal
The liver is evil and must be punished

Rishi I'm gonna retrain as a donut
Rishi I'm gonna retrain as a shark
Bondi beach I'll be nibbling the surfers
Bondi beach I'll be giving evil smirks
Rishi I'm gonna retrain as a lobster
Rishi I'm gonna retrain as a cow
In my field don't you know I'll be outstanding
In my field I'll be giving lots of milk
Rishi I'm gonna retrain as an astronaut
Rishi I'm gonna retrain as a whale
In the sea my oh blubber will be peerless
In the sea where you don't get paid to sing
Rishi thank you for the money
Oh Rishi I'd be screwed without your money
It's a shame some people got nothing
