The Beautiful South - I Love You (But You're Boring) lyrics

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
