Favourite Non-Rush Lyrics

[GeddysMullet]

"Outside World" by XTC, courtesy of the very odd and incredibly clever Andy Partridge:

 

She has six swans singing in her sauna

So she can't hear what's going on

She can't hear what's going on

In the outside world

In the outside world

In the outside

Bad black and white men

Standing in their pigpen

Selling guns to simpletons

To shoot 'em in the abdomen

And she's not interested in that

And she's not interested in that

She has six swans singing in her sauna

Outside - world - outside

 

She has eleven lions laughing at her lakeside

So she can't hear what's going on

No she can't hear what's going on

In the outside world

In the outside world

In the outside

Bad brown and yellow men

Splitting on their fellow men

Drape her in a newspaper

And stab her with a poison pen

She's not interested in that

She's not interested in that

She has eleven lions laughing at her lakeside

Outside - world - outside

 

You can keep your animals

All the noise and the din

Just make a little space for me

I'm coming in
