lyrics

Romano the dog is humping Ginger the cat
What do I tell the kids
About life and the universe, it seems so perverse
I think I'll have a cup of tea

But I prefer coffee even though that's not so English
I wanna go off the edge
And grow old disgracefully, live in make believe
Are you finished with the cat

Give me all your love, your hugs and your money, honey
Give me all your sweets, complete and your silly billy goat

I guess I should get out of bed although it's only 2pm
I'll work when I damn well please
I'm an improper and disorderly town planner
Who works for the government
Or so they say

Give me all your maps in black with your airy fairies
Give me all your dreams, pristine and I'll never give them back

Time ticks away in the wrong direction
I have no regrets for what I can remember
Everything I have forgotten is the only thing that makes me sad

For the first time in my life I see everything so blurred
Not everything need make sense
Still I stop and ask myself should I be generating wealth
When the sadness sneaks up on you
I only have the bone to chew
What would Bob Lind do right now

I can give you love and hugs and all my money, honey
I can give you sweets, complete and my topsy-turvy cow

Romano the dog...

(PB091)The Solicitors: Made To Measure (w/ free bonus digital single "Quicksand")
by Popboomerang

supported by 8 fans who also own “Romano The Dog”

Like stumbling into an alternate universe with quality Brinsley Schwarz material from their pub-rock heyday which you hadn't heard (all written by Nick Lowe) but sadly with no keyboards. For youngsters that means I fully expect to still be enjoying this catchy material forty years on, gods willing. Shaggy Maggot
