A To Z

Please read me the phone book

From Abraham to Zuckerman

All addresses and names

Both Christian and sur-

You've my full attention

Yes I am the lucky one

To carry each word

From the place it occurred

In my neighbour's garden

I'll steal all the flowers

In the town you were born

I will do a handstand

'Cause I'm here

I came down in the last shower

With all the subtleties

Of a marching band

Seated in a lounge waiting to depart

You'd say that we're off to a flying start

So let's capture a city bus

We'll jump from burning buildings

While a circle of firemen

Catch us in a net

We'll make paper aeroplanes

Of encyclopaedia

From abacus to zebra

The entire set

For those who have matchmaking down to an art

They'd say that we're off to a broken heart

But there's never an argument

I don't need an apology

It's all half a dozen eggplants

Or six aubergines

Just please sing me the entire

Beatles anthology

From 'All My Loving'

To 'Yellow Submarine'

From 'All My Loving'

To 'Yellow Submarine'

From 'All My Loving'

To a yellow submarine
