27 Yards Of Dental Floss

	Well, I told her that I thought life’s too short
	And we really should go for a ride
	Paul’s just phoned, the war’s postponed
	So come on, I’ve got the Plymouth outside
	The sky’s a bit dull but the fridge is full
	Things could be a lot worse
	It’s not like you’ve been captured by Barbary Corsairs
	I said “Let’s head Winchester way”, she said “Been yesterday”
	Twenty-seven yards of dental floss, and she still won’t give me a smile
	Fired by wine, she was almost mine
	‘Til a fight broke out in the bar
	Third-Rate Les in his Burberry Fez
	Had gone just a little too far
	Nailing down his bailing wire
	To the laminate floor
	He sang a salty song about a girl from Bangalore
	I said “Would you like to go the zoo?”, she said “Yeah, but not with you”
	Twenty-seven yards of dental floss, but she still won’t give me a smile
	I’m King Euphoria, she’s Queen Victoria
	Twenty-seven yards of dental floss, and she still won’t give me a smile
	I’m clowning by the Serpentine, she’s still drinking turpentine
	Will she ever shine her light on me?
