Tulip |
Aged Casanova speaking to the tie-dye |
Slightly fat and nineteen year old who’s lived a little lie |
Down in the darkness where the little glow stares |
I can spot the average ones |
I can tell by the hair |
But you, you shouldn’t be here way down on your knees |
You don’t need the this and that and this and that andthis and that |
You don’t need this |
Chorus: Hey Tulip (x2), you’re the strong one |
Hey Tulip (x2), yours is the long one. |
Hey hey hey this must be your day |
Somebody knows your face |
They remember from '62 |
When you wore your shoes blue |
And you had the kind of hairdo they’d never admire |
You purchased a house and a horse |
But you’re getting much thinner |
Who’s watching the children at home? |
Who’s making your dinner? |
Shake it just one time for him |
You remember your auntie Margaret |
And your cousin Jim |
They’ve been searching for you |
But you’re still down here |
Just one more small scotch, one more beer |
Leave, leave, go home |
To Bradford, Newcastle, somewhere |
Go back up North, go away |
They don’t want you here (x2) |
