the beautiful south
i love you (but you're boring)
Birds are singing in the trees  As we rise up on a beautiful morning  But I can't hear  That beautiful sound  Because I'm permanently yawning   What about the time of the fancy dress  When you came dressed as your mum  And there I was splendid in my penguin suit  So scared to show my bill   You must have been listening to your Carousel  Your Carousel, that Carousel   Remember the time  When I turned the house into a rocket ship  And you refused to come to Mars  You said "It's too far"  You had to be back by six to watch your Carousel  Saturn's much too far  You had to watch Carousel (What's going on in there?)   When we first met  I asked you for your hand  I didn't really mean that hand  I meant join hands  Bake phallic cake (Bake phallic cake)  Carry round sticky tape  And love those devil dogs  Be an Indian elephant (Be an Indian elephant)  Bait straight people  But you must have missed my wink  You must have missed my wink   (I love you,  But you're boring, you know,  I really do love you  But you're so particularly boring)   Maybe you were too busy listening to Carousel  Watching Carousel, living Carousel  You were listening to Carousel  You were watching Carousel
