| Hello lovely, you look stunning
|
| Lots of fun in my house coming
|
| Care for a biscuit or a liquorice twist?
|
| It’s best not to sit there; |
| better not risk it
|
| That chair, right there, reserved for geoffrey-
|
| A butler who helps me, a monkey? |
| Definitely
|
| An ape, probably, I’m never quite sure
|
| Have a look around
|
| Don’t open that door!
|
| That’s where the lab is, where I produce a
|
| Number of things and one got loose so
|
| Keep an eye out for something new
|
| Here at Elemental Manor there’s something to do
|
| That’s alarming, bizarre, disarming, and charming
|
| Ghosts in the attic, giant rabbits in the garden
|
| Half past three: I’m parched, im partial
|
| To a bucket load of tea
|
| In my home; |
| my castle
|
| An englishmans home is his castle
|
| Come on in, how do you take your tea?
|
| We’ve been waiting for you
|
| Oh, your welcome, you’re all so terribly welcome
|
| An englishmans home is his castle
|
| Well hello, so much for you to see
|
| We’ve been waiting for you
|
| And now that you’ve made it I’m ever so pleased
|
| I’m gonna get you a taxi, honey
|
| Try to be ready 'bout half past eight
|
| Come on now, don’t be late
|
| I’m gonna be there when the band starts playing
|
| In case we haven’t been introduced,
|
| I’ll save you the interview
|
| A brief run down, an interlude
|
| Geoffrey, damn your eyes, bring some soup
|
| Let’s start with my loves:
|
| Wearing khaki, my lovely hats and lavish parties,
|
| Experiments, exotic dance, inventing things, exotic plants,
|
| And pots of tea and mystery, and dear Geoffrey
|
| And more tea (obviously)
|
| And battenburg and being nice,
|
| And badgers, crumble, gin with ice,
|
| And machine that fly, doing what’s right,
|
| Or going on a nudist hike.
|
| That’s quite alright
|
| Don’t look so startled
|
| My land, my grounds, my home, my castle
|
| Just remember when we get there honey,
|
| New steps, I’m gonna have 'em all
|
| Dance above my shoes |
