Give My Compliments To The Chef Lyrics - Live - Sensational Alex Harvey Band

Mother dear did you hear how they're teaching me to do the goose step 

Father mine just in time you gave me a machine to wash my jeans in 

the customer is always right the girl is much too young to know the difference 

The guitar hanging in the hall is calling me in all its magnificence 

Give my compliments to the chef 

Give my compliments to the chef 

Leo sits behind the desk he wanna see the woman cooking gravy 

Nobody sent no argument and I gotta go and join the Royal Navy 

Madamazelle you do so well you know the meaning of salvation 

But the General wants me on the phone and he's alone and needs my consolation 

Give my compliments to the chef 

Give my compliments to the chef 

He's crazy he got his head in a basket 

She's lazy and you don't understand 

You know I'm running and you don't wanna hide me 

I know a woman who's a man is a man 

One night I was dreaming as I lay on my pillow 

The train I was riding was ten coaches long 

And in the village they was looking at freedom 

In the beginning when I knew it was any old time 

Any old time 

Any old time 

Any old time 

bad boys don't get no toys and everybody wants to get to heaven 

The Salvation Army's asking but nobody ever thinks of giving 

You know I wish I could see yesterday 

The way I can see tomorrow 

Go and take a look in a history book 

It's up to you to mix the stew 

And when you do 

Give my compliments to the chef 

The chef any old time, any old time
