doug anthony all stars - sailors arms lyrics

i met her at the ‘sailor arms’
a bar down by the docks
full of prost-tutes and deviants
and fellows wearing frocks
went there to drown my sorrow
my misery and paaaiiiiaaaiiiiaan
with fourteen multicoloured pills
and a pint of heavy ale
(heavy ale)
and i saw this girl across the way
who was smiling through the wine
so i begged her come on over
come on over, spend some time
and i spilled my life before her
and she seemed to understand
although she was a girl
we were talking man to man
(man to man)
[chorus]
for love is where you find it
wherever that may be
for me it was in the sailors arms
at twenty-five past three
there’s something strange about her
i can’t put my finger on
but i wanna tell the world
that she’s the one
(she’s the one)
i wanna tell the world
that she’s the one
she strolled up to the toilets
she strolled into the gents
i asked her why she did it
why she’d gone to pay the rent
we arm-wrestled and i lost
she beat me with a spike
told me filthy jokes
that were quite unlady-like
(lady-like)
it was four in the morning
and through the smokey haze
i could’ve been mistaken
but she needed to shave
(to shave)
[chorus]
for love is where you find it
wherever that may be
for me it was in the sailors arms
with a better man than me
her husky voice seduced me
my heart was in a mess
i sat upon her knee
as something twitched beneath her dress
there’s something more than knees beneath her dress
you’ve got nice eyes says i
(oh sir, i am suprised)
what large hands i said
(all the better to touch you with)
god, you arms look strong
(a woman’s work is never done)
your legs are quite hirsuite
(aren’t you the saucy one!)
i was feeling less than stable
when she said her name was ken
(ken!)
well if i had suspicions
lord i should’ve had ’em then
(then!)
she cried as she told me
how she was so confused
one more visit to the doctor
she’d have nothing left to lose
(toulouse-lautrec)
i ran my fingers through her wig
she lightly stroked my hair
she said she was a man
(whoa whoa! she said she was a man?
a man called ken – bull-tw-ng!)
lots of men are called ken.
(so what did you say?)
i told her i don’t care
(he doesn’t care)
[chorus]
for love is where you find it
wherever that may be
for me it was in a hopper bin
with my trousers ’round my knees
there’s something strange about her
i just put my finger on
and i want to tell the world
that she’s the one
(he’s the one)
i want to tell the world
that its the one.
