Venus In Flares Lyrics - Singles - Half Man Half Biscuit

Venus in Flares 

Half Man Half Biscuit 

A million housewives every day, pick up a can of beans and say 

"What an amazing example of synchronisation" 

He looked out of the aeroplane and he saw the Alps way down below 

He fixed his gaze upon the white terrain and he could see a portrait in the snow 

And he shouted "Hey look down there. I can see Robert Powell 

That's an ominous example of the power of TV" 

And I went la la la la la la la 

La la la la la la laaaaaa 

I went la la la la la la la 

Just like everyone else does when they can't think of any more words 

Yeah ok I had a Kojak mac, by Christ they were trendy at the time 

I got it into my head that I had to stamp out crime 

The man behind the mask at C&As was quite polite 

He said that when I wore my mac I wouldn't have to fight 

And I went yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah sure George 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah 

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah oh God 

Well, The Grand Old Duke Of York 

Well, he had ten thousand men 

And he marched them up to the top of the hill 

And he had them all again
