From your designer jeans to the floor
Smoking toothpaste all over the door
You come back to have a real cool time
Nice time from 8 'til 9 cos what it needed to round off the set
... of the video set is the place to be, just Johnny and me
No lay lines on the body map
Cos what you find is covered in crap
Do you think I look like James Dean
The American dream that means so much to me
Like a red fat bloated flea
Step into the parlour door the faces watching dropped to the floor
For one minute I was nearly sold
Almost believed that they had broke the mould of the grain of the poor
The kind of tale that I adore
But, oh no, white ankle socks wrapped around a chocolate box
Oh no, white ankle socks wrapped around a chocolate box
Is the place to be
Both plain and milk y'see
Poor old Harold sitting alone
... and his dancer has grown
No mirrors in the house of glass
Wants to read now come Charles come over the place
All over the place, oh what a pretty face
Pussy Percy and the bad-eyed bush
We're all round when he took a lot
Counting out things on every page
Have you met the old hallowed sage and onion tears
I confirm all your worst fears
Chocolate box, chocolate box, free at first, chocolate box
Chocolate box, chocolate box so many treats
The kind of whacky boxes having a field on his own cover blown
