Showbiz Lyrics - Gilbert Osullivan

Well here we are and here we go 

Up the hill and down the slope 

Pardon me if I seem out of breath 

Bus was late so I walked instead There's nobody quite like me 

Isn't that Presumably 

What it is they say you're looking for 

Ballad singer with a guitar 

Okay so guitar was the part I got wrong 

The rest of me surely is what you want 

Wait a minute who is this 

He needs a psychiatrist 

Either that or I do give me strength 

(Would do If I knew the way it went) 

You say you sing slow songs and fast numbers too 

Do you know volare 

(Is that her next to you) 

I'm running round in circles 

I'm getting so forlorn 

Whatever so forlorn's supposed to mean 

I'm sick of good intentions 

Whatever their intent on being 

Who's responsibility lies in sending him to me 

Tell me and I'll tear them limb from limb 

I said Matt Monro not Gunga Din 

Our members will see him and eat him alive 

No two ways about it 

Or three or four or five 

0ne day you'll see I'll he enormous 

(Then here's a tip lay off your fookin 

They'll say of me and my performance 

It's was superb (don't make me laugh) 

The best we've heard (you must he daft) 

False modesty is not for me 

[Solo] 

The way to skin a rabbit the way to comb a hare 

I know which one of those I'd rather heed 

As I'm sure would the rabbit 

Who only wants to live and breed 

I write each and all my songs 

Always have done all along 

So if you want "My Way" I can do 

Every song in my way just for you 

Has it occurred to you that I might not be well 

I've got a heart that needs a bypass I can tell 

So here we are together then 

You and me the best of friends 

(Best of friends you must be off your head) 

How about employer then instead 

We have to work closely and mostly we do 

We're at opposite ends of 

An industry without any smoke 

It's boiler being only fired by hope 

It is Showbiz
