Flying South |
Chorus |
I’m flying south for the summer, I’m gonna follow the sun, |
I’m flying south for the summer now the mating season’s begun. |
In San Tropez I met Selina, now her figure was not very nice, |
She was so thin the cats had her out on the landing twice. |
When she went down to the beach there, everyone stared at her, |
And when she wore her topless bathing suit, people kept calling her 'sir'. |
Oh, |
In Lisbon I first kissed Maria, it was late on a September night, |
She was a vision of loveliness in the early morning light. |
I said, «Tell me, where have you been all my life, my Venus of the dawn?» |
She smiled and said, «Well, for the first twenty years I wasn’t even born."Oh, |
Big Annie from Brighton once ordered a steak weighing nine and a quarter pound, |
The butcher, he said, «Will you take it, ma’am, or shall I send it 'round?» |
She said, «No, I just wanna look at it 'cause I’ve been dieting like a chump, |
And that’s what I’ve lost and I just wanna see what it looks like in one lump. |
«Oh, |
Oh, one day I saw in Jerona on a river so quiet and remote, |
Eight lovely girls from the college, they were all in the same boat. |
And as they rode in unison by me, I gallantly waved my hat, |
And I said with a sigh, «I wish that I could stroke a crew just like that."Oh, |
With Rita I stood in a tube train, we were hanging on tight by the strap, |
When she let her pretty white hanky fall on a sleeping old gentleman’s lap. |
Now, when he awoke from his slumber he saw everyone staring at him, |
And thinking it was his shirt tail he slyly tucked it in. |
