Sinister but She Was Happy |
She was sinister but she was happy |
Basically she was the Jeanne Moreau type |
Sinister but she was happy |
Sinister but she was always pleased to see you |
And her living words |
Were her dying words |
She said «Yeah.» |
She was sinister but she was happy |
With a cheery smile and poison blowpipe |
Sinister but she was happy |
Like a kind of spider half-inclined to free you |
Her lopsided grin made it so hard to win |
She said: |
«Alright you are -- and your promises |
Are just promises -- but a sinister little |
Wave of a hand goes a long, long way |
In these troubled times.» |
She was sinister but she was happy |
And you can’t say that of everybody can you? |
Sinister but she was happy |
Like a chandelier festooned with leeches |
And she rolled along |
Till she came on strong and she said: |
«Alright you are and your promises |
Just are promises -- but a sinister little |
Wave of a hand goes a long, long way |
In these troubled times.» |
