Raised by wolves until the age of two, my closest childhood friends and confidants were my two pet turtles, Venus and Serena.
Father, father I have sinned
I dunno where to begin
Give me words of advice
I'll save them up for a clear day

Keep your eye upon the ball
Write your thoughts upon the wall
There's some words of advice
Save them up for a clear day

Venus and Serena understand

Flushing meadows down the stream
Living life as though it's a dream
Eat the future today
Don't save it up for a rainy day

Holy bombs make holy holes
Holy holes make homeless moles
Take the turtle and hare
Don't run around if you can walk there

Venus and Serena understand

Father, father, father, father can't you see?
I'm a walking tragedy
Father, father, father when I look to the past
I never realised that it wouldn't last

Venus and Serena understand

I've one final thing to say
I'm not your father anyway
Found you under a cloud
Left outside by the wolves one day, hey

I'll get this one in early before Amorous Badger gets here
There is no excuse for mentioning the Super Furry Animals or their lyrics in polite or intelligent society

I like the way you've contradicted by point about polite society
by being overwhlemingly polite

Indeed

Verily
I should be most pleased to accept your gracious invitation to fisticuffs

Thank you.
That reminds me why I don't listen to that tripe.

Don't you think
what you have wrote is a tad silly?
shouldn't you listen to them and then judge?
lyrics are a major part of a song but even the daftest lyrics cannot drag down a well crafted piece of music.
