Fantastic Life Lyrics - Fall

Got eighteen months for espionage 

Too much brandy for breakfast 

And people tend to let you down 

It's a swine. 

Fantastic life 

Dole penicillin to eastern ching plague-ridden 

And one thing I have found 

What you cast out will hit back 

And a man will find he has to deny his 

Fantastic life 

Ours is not to look back 

Ours is to continue the crack 

Met a 54 year old dustbin man 

And '48 he'd been in Jerusalem 

Sold surplus oil to Arab fighters 

For M-cocktails to burn Jewish terrorists 

What a turn-up! 

Fantastic life 

Style's too easy to buy nowadays 

And there's interference with the mail 

And you just can't get out the words 

Some people think if they had a job they'd be well 

Now! 

A fantastic lie! 

The Siberian mushroom Santa 

Was in fact Rasputin's brother 

And he didst walk round Whitechapel 

To further the religion of forgiven sin murder 

Fantastic lie! 

No lie, friend called David 

He said he had a barney on Corporation Street 

He said he told the policeman what he really thought 

But knowing him I don't believe that crap 

A Fantastic lie 

And I just thought I'd tell you 

And I just thought I'd tell you 

About fantastic life 

And I just thought I'd tell you 

Some fantastic lies 

And I just thought I'd tell you 

And I just thought I'd tell you 

I walked right (West) round Wakefield Jail 

A fantastic life 

And I just thought I'd tell you 

And I just thought I'd tell you
