School Prizes
It was the last day at school,
the day they give out prizes
to all the good boys and girls,
getting their school prizes.
Alan Girdwood, spotty swot, he's a latin scolar,
Gay-boy Fyffe looked so nice in his shirt and collar;
top dogs down the catwalk march,
looking smart and brainy,
looking down their nose at me
with their new school prizes.
Donald Irvine (great big dick, I've seen it in the shower),
he's so thick, but the chicks love a rugger bugger;
I very nearly wet my pants over a certain lady,
maybe she will notice me if I win school prizes?
Robert Wright, six-foot-three, also known as 'petal';
Mathew Levine walked off with three regimental medals:
and me, now I'm seventeen, surely I am able
to scoop a golden globe, a school olympic gold,
the school prize, the school prize,
the school prize in rock 'n' roll!!!
Doctor J Gilmour PhD, feeling kind of woozy,
wipes his mouth on his gown,
and draws the winning ticket:
"now the school prize for popular entertainment,
also known as the school prize, the school prize,
the school prize in rock 'n' roll...
and the winner is..."
Heatbeat! Heartbeat!
I can see you walking down a dead-end street,
Heartbeat! Heartbeat!
make a U-turn for Jesus oh Lord,
make a U-turn for Jesus oh Lord.
Heartbeat then,
a jewish jesus-rock band from the Isle of Lewis..
Well done chaps! clap-clap,
see you next year at the Kampioenschap...

green cats from vega
when you're in tune with the moon,
worldly wobbles are a mile way,
feline fantasies making you smile:
green cats from vega!
when you're in step with neptune,
we're tap-dancing on a watering can,
fred and ginger in an ice-cream van...
when you're in sync with the sphinx,
green cats magically making you well,
cosmic kitty-kats making you blink:
green cats from vega!

BILLY BEAR
At the top of the pink pyramid lives a little green
luminous man with a silver trumpet in his hand.
He's looking so happy, his cat-suit is so natty,
I'm gonna ask him to play in my band.
"Hey Billy Bear!"
"Yes hallo there!"
"I play the guitar and I'm forming a band..."
"YES OF COURSE I WILL, MAN!"
Let's call it Mink Terrapins, or maybe Zinc Zeppelin,
or maybe House of Pain?
The Ghost of Cinderella or how about the Black Umbrellas
or maybe just the Brain ?
We practice all night under black light,
borrow a car to play in a bar:
WE ARE GONNA BE BIG STARS!!
Beaming out pure positivity, green radio-activity,
live on air tonight
we invent a new paradigm of progressive rock pantomime
that sets the Japs alight.
We make a sort of future pop-art,
we're gonna support Davindra Bahnhart:
"GIVE THE BOYS A BIG BIG HAND!!!"
Billy Bear has an identical twin living in South America,
on top a mountain in Peru.
His vibe is so groovy, he's gonna put us in the movies
and fix us up a world tour.
Now Billy Bear is growing his hair,
one of the fans made him new pants:
NOW WE ARE THE WORLD'S BEST BAND!!!!
Black gold and white pyramid, faster than light pyramid,
pass Vega then turn right:
Head for the Cosmic Cranium, the Great Galactic Stadium,
tonight will be a lot of fun...
BUT I'VE NOT FORGOT ME MUM!!!!!
