Is That A Line?

I would rejoice the choice not to mess up the mess were in around here...

Sometimes

But I'm not gonna push no one nowhere

Leave nature to its course

Why infringe on a fringe which is precision made unkempt

I don't ask much - just being here is all I attempt

You could maybe say I'm conducting a sociological survey

I ain't ripped off or sucked in on a neater kind of holiday

Can anybody tell me, who is the grand poobah round here?

There's many people under many impressions I've wanted to know all year

A person I know is a pornographic philosopher

She's a dirty joke from one end of the town to the other

I think there must be some mistake here

She's younger than me yet older than my mother

I can't decide if this is lively or lugubrious

But I ain't gonna start facin' about it 'cos loose lips sink loose ships

Pacemakers molest loose hips

Personally I can do without it

But when the asterisk takes over is when you should worry

But never revived your process in pain 'cos who knows - in a week or two

You may wish you hadn't an' make a trip down memory lane

Now I can't decide if its viscereal or visceral

I've heard of people who are in no hurry

People who are like a dodgy curry

Even more people who don't wanna worry who get in a flurry

Say they're sorr, don't say there sorry, don't you call it "corrie"?

Here comes a line

Is that a line?

For every cloud that has a silver line

You'll find one which has decided to lead a life of crime

Who will dust off the career of a weather-eater in his prime

IS THAT A LINE?

When there seems to be no obstacles in the way

When I ask if my human objects OK

When I feel a neater feeling than you feel

IS THAT A LINE? IS IT A LINE?

Would you please appease my pleas for peas pudding peas and plum pudding please

I know frozen food doesn't grow on trees, ow!

IS THAT A LINE?

If I offer you a better deal

If I polish up some rods of shiny steel

If one makes out one knows how another one feels

IS THAT A LINE?

Person can't keep down person's bile when person realizes person is on trial

Person calm down for awhile

IS THAT A LINE?

Darling any day you'll get my vote

Darling I just love you for your new fur coat

Or is that your hairy shoulders

You could just about part your spine

THIS IS A LINE... THIS IS A LINE

IS THAT A LINE

Not so much hitting as missing

See you at the next bout of pretend kissing

One spreads one's phlegm around too much

Bye bye saliva - keep in touch

IS THAT A LINE

Beware of these danger spots

The place where old actresses go to rot

The trouble with old actresses is that they've always got the same old plots

I know your lines - I know your lines

IS THAT A LINE

IS THAT A LINE?
