Barrier Reef |
The Empty Bottle was half empty, tide was low, and I was thirsty |
Saw her sitting at the bar, you know how some girls are |
Always making eyes, well she wasn’t making eyes |
So I sidled up beside her, settled down and shouted, «Hi there.» |
«My name’s Stewart Ransom Miller, I’m a serial lady-killer.» |
She said, «I'm already dead,» that’s exactly what she said |
So we tripped the lights fantastic, we was both made of elastic |
Midnight came and midnight went, and I thought I was the President |
She said, «Do you have a car,» and I said, «Do I have a car?» |
What’s so great about the Barrier Reef? |
What’s so fine about art? |
What’s so good about a Good Times Van |
When you’re working on a broken |
Working on a broken |
Working on a broken man? |
When you’re working on a broken |
Working on a broken |
Working on a broken man? |
My heart wasn’t in it, not for one single minute |
I went through the motions with her. |
Her on top, and me on liquor |
Didn’t do no good, well I didn’t think it would |
