The Beautiful South - The Opening Of A New Book lyrics

The opening of a new book A singular wave crashing The opening of a new book Sat on your chuff knowing nothing The opening of a new book A ticket on a train from nowhere to somewhere The opening of a new book Are you Elephant Man or George Michael? The opening of a new book A sip, a swig, a gulp, a mouthful, a session, a bender, a life The opening of a new book Does this personality have any brakes? The opening of a new book Does anyone know who oils the brakes? Are you supposed to oil them yourself? Can you whisky? Can you gin? Can you speed without brakes? Are you cancelled? Are you taken? Can you whisky? Can you gin? Can you speed without brakes? Can anyone repair me? Can you whisky? Can you gin? Can you speed without brakes? Are you cancelled? Are you taken in? Can you whisky? Can you gin? Can you speed without brakes? Can anyone repair me?
