lyrics

I'd like to make my exit with panache
Bright underpants to be shown on the coroner's table
Please
Everybody's got something to hide
I've been under treatment
But now it's done
I'm healed
Be sure that I'll come over
What's your take on
This outrageous outfit I wore?
Please Goddess let me lie on the floor

To master an appearance at the awards
"The Bird, The Fly & The Helicopter"
Our time is up, the party's over
Stick to your guns
The award goes to Virginia Woodstone-Grey
For the most impressive body of work that anyone who's worked with her Might have noticed yeah, haven’t you yeah?

I'd like to make my exit with panache
Please find my passport in the pocket of my Italian jacket Please
I'm sitting singing songs for everyone
I've been under treatment But now I'm good
I'm healed
Be sure that I'll come over What's your take on
"I wonder if you can picture more"?
Those funny little things on the shore

Open your eyes Mother
Open your heart to me
I don't care if the cupboard's bare
I don't mind if your beloved dog is sick
I don't give a damn about your brand new car
Is it grey? Is it white? Is it black? Is it shiny?
I sing this song in English cause I like it
I'll sing in Italian and I'm sure you will love it
Or even in German but you and I won't get it
I'd rather sing in French
Hoping you'd understand
What I really meant
Do I really need to scream?

Open your eyes
Mother
Open your heart to me
Only a pocketful of minutes or years ahead of us
