The Fat Lady of Limbourg
Lyricist:Brian Peter George Eno
Well, I rang up Pantucci Spoke to Lucia I gave them all, they needed to know
And if affairs are proceeding As we're expecting soon enough The weak spots will show
I assume you understand that we have options on your time We'll ditch you in the harbor if we must
But if it all works out nicely You'll get the bonus you deserve From doctors we trust
The Fat Lady of Limbourg Looked at the samples that we sent And furrowed her brow
You would never believe that She'd tasted royalty and fame If you saw her now
But her sense of taste is such that she'll distinguish with her tongue The subtleties a spectrograph would miss
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com And then announce her decision While demanding her reward The jellyfish kiss
Well we checked out that duck quack Who laid a big egg, oh so black It shone just like gold
And then the kids from the city Finding it pretty, took it home And there it was sold
It was changing hands for weeks till someone left it by their fire It melted to a puddle on the floor
For it was only a candle A Roman scandal all along Now it's a pool
That's what they're paid for That's what they're paid for That's what they're paid for here
That's what they're paid for That's what they're paid for That's what they're paid for here
