Singapore Silk Torpedo Lyrics - Pretty Things

I've sailed the seas, a hard sea dog to please. 

Tattooed on my chest, is the girl I love best. 

Back in 1954, on leave in old singapore 

I was soaking in gin, when miss foxy walked in. 

She's my singapore silk torpedo, 

Wearing high satin non stick lip glow, 

I fell a victim to this female hipno, 

She's my singapore silk torpedo. 

She drives a mercedes, she's queen of the ladies, 

My china seas sweetheart, she tears me apart. 

She's my singapore silk torpedo. 

You speak of love to her, a smile cracks her face, 

She doesn't believe in rules, to her it's just a race. 

She's seen both black and white, 

You shouldn't go out tonight 

Unless you me in to play it mean. 

She's like a spike in the head, 

I'd be better off dead, 

Just can't shake her loose. 

Now I'm hooked on this juice 

We'll build a house on the cliff, 

A small navy our gift, 

Passing ships in the night, 

Anchored safe we're alright. 

She's my singapore silk torpedo.
