|
With their cardboard hands by their sides, |
|
Here's a naked man and lady |
|
And they're yours to cut out and keep |
|
So you can dress them up maybe |
|
They don't know just who they are, or who they're supposed to be |
|
You can make them happy or sad |
|
Or assume their identity |
|
So here they are in the departure lounge |
|
It's the 'gateway to the east' |
|
She is just another mail-order bride |
|
She doesn't know he's a kinky beast |
|
So he gives her a picture of maradona and child |
|
She wants to 'roll and rock' |
|
As he spills his beer over her, bumps and he |
|
Grinds, as he repeats 'bang-cock' |
|
Chorus: |
|
There must be something that is better than this |
|
It starts with a slap and ends up with a kiss |
|
Begins with you bawling and it ends up in tears |
|
Oh my little one, take that chewing gum out of your ears |
|
She might as well be in the jungle |
|
She might as well be on the moon |
|
He's away on a business trip, in dusseldorf, but she's becoming immune |
|
To the lack of glamour and danger in a west-german city today |
|
The nearest she comes to the 'dynasty' he promised her |
|
Is a chinese takeaway |
|
Chorus |
|
Though he only taught her three little words, it |
|
Doesn't matter if they're dirty or clean |
|
He can only control what they look like |
|
He can never possess what they mean |
|
Now he wants to whisper in her ear |
|
All the shrinking nothingness |
|
But something always comes between them, |
|
I wonder if you can guess |
|
Chorus |
