I've just been told that a woman fancies me I've just been told that its Christmas Day So if you please I will raise a toast to me Three cheers hip hip hooray So call the undertaker mother And put my funeral on hold Yeah tell the undertaker mother That I'm too young to be old I've just been told that a woman fancies me And there'll be peace in Palestine If someone up there has it in for me Its nice to know down here it's fine So call the undertaker mother And put my funeral on hold Yeah tell the undertaker mother That I'm too young to be old I don't what her first name is Or her surname or where she lives Her friends or her acquantainces I hope she really does exist And I don't know where she goes at night If she has glasses or clear sight The food that whets her appetite The clothes she wears, the films she likes I've just been told that the woman fancies me I've just been told that the world won't end I've been informed things are looking good for me I can't wait to tell my girlfriend So call the undertaker mother And put my funeral on hold Yeah tell the undertaker mother That I'm too young to be old Is she blond or a brunette? Does she like cats or dogs as pets? Does she cherish or regret Things that haven't happened yet? And does she get annoyed at stuff And spend the weekend in a huff Decide she's finally had enough And leave me with the babyyyyyyy aaaiiieeeeeeeeee!

Ah girl I know you keep your standards high But he ignores you and you want to die, I don't know why He never looks at you You might as well be see through And I can't stand to see you cry So if you can't have him, have me Yeah if you can't have him, have me When he stops talking he stops thinking When he stops thinking he starts drinking as you sink into despair He never looks at you He doesn't care like I do And I can't stand to see you cry if you can't have him, have me if you can't have him, have me if you can't have him have ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba yeah have ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba Ah girl I know he kicks the ball so well You dream a day will come when he will tell you are his belle But he never looks at you You might as well be see through But I know how to make things swell If you can't have him have me if you can't have him have ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba ba

I'm heading out where koalas dressed as beefeaters keep watch at Scotland Yard And the Queen greets happy possums for the changing of the guard Oh, what a card! Out where the sand meets the snow At ten o clock a golden shouldered parrot will be joined by a crow To see Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds play the songs of Status Quo Oh, what a show! Out where the sand meets the snow In the bar, a girl with missing wisdom teeth and ruffles on her skirt Talks to an animated gentleman in cap and paisley shirt Oh, what a flirt! Out where the sand meets the snow

about

How do you do a live EP in France with half the band in Denmark and the keyboard player in Cambridge? Easy- play all the instruments yourself and make it sound as Danish as possible. All the songs were written and recorded in 3 days at Chateau Blanc without an audience which is where you come in!
