Idiot Brother |
They were hanging on For grim life |
They were clutching |
At straws |
They were sure |
That the ship was at port |
As it sailed far from shore |
They were keen philosophers |
They were keen on hurt |
They were like |
A pair of dumb dogs |
Rolling in the dirt |
(That's) you and |
Your idiot brother |
Waiting in the wing |
Which one holds up the other |
Which one pulls the string |
One bite of the apple |
One chop at the tree |
Is your word |
As good as your bond |
Your stammer, your honesty |
You could have it for free |
Because nothing works |
For no-one |
And that won’t work |
For me Nothing works |
For no-one at all |
No-one works for free |
We were |
Getting on famously |
I was doing my bit |
They got no claim on me So send me a writ |
I was walking |
Around your house |
In the middle of the night |
Home medicine erotica |
Is your prescription right? |
I want to kill your sister |
With some business advice |
Never question your loyalty |
On the telephone line |
And what about |
Our fat friend |
With the golden ear |
Upped and left |
Turned down |
Your best shot |
Now you’re in arrears |
