the raj quartet – whoops! what a palaver lyrics
i quote in the vernacular
and edit speech oracular
to seek a phrase spectacular
like, “p-ss off you c-nt”, or “i hate the queen”, or “i am one”
i wheedle out a vanity
expose it with inanity
expand it to insanity
he struck me as sick, talentless d-ck, got on my wick
whoops, what a palaver, eh, my boy
oh, slip us a fiver, and enjoy
i veer from the phenomenal
to mildly astronomical
then swing to being comical
little joke, like, here, here & there, now & then
i jeer at his philosophy
and leer at her biology
i never make apologies
well, not for a ten, follow me drift, need a new watch
whoops, what a palaver, eh, my love
oh, do us a favour, hard cash, guv
or p-ss off home
anything you do, i can do better
but i’ve just got some better things to do
any size you get, well, i’ve been bigger
than you
whoops, what a palaver, eh, my dear
oh, just put your signature right here
whoops, what a palaver, eh, my love
oh, do us a favour, hard cash, guv
or sling yer hook
