Whatevershebringswesing - Kevin Ayers

I’m looking 'round madly

For something to find

That might give me a front

To put something

Something behind

Just bouncing this ball

Up and down the hall

But it’s full of best wishes

And suffocating fishes

And all

So let’s drink some wine

And have a good time

But if you really want to come through

Let the good time

Good time have you

It’s what you’ve got to do

You said it was foolish

For me to be sad

But I’m very hungry

And you

You’re very well fed

You’re such a fat lady

And I’m talking to you

Just for something to do

'Cause I’d much rather kiss you

But I know

I’m gonna miss you again and again

I know I’m gonna miss you

So let’s drink some wine

And have a good time

But if you really want to come through

Let the good time

Good time have you

It’s what you’ve got to do

Yeah, let’s drink some wine

And have a good time

But if you really want to come through

Let the good time

Good time have you

It’s what you’ve got to do

I sing to the island

That sings in your head

'Cause I know you’d much rather be there

Be there instead

I know you’d rather be there

But you won’t find the answer

Even when the wind blows

'Cause the answer, my friend

Is in front

Right there in front of your nose

Everybody knows, it’s their nose

So let’s drink some wine

And have a good time

But if you really want to come through

Let the good time

Good time have you

It’s what you’ve got to do
