Mocking mad seniors Fed up and tedious Long nights in Britland
Oh, they're nice, nice, nice His skin was in default Too beautiful to talk He's been waiting
(Past it!) (Past it!) (Past it!)
Lonesome, lonely
She's off to Venice with the girls He's been waiting so long She's off to Venice with the girls He's been waiting so long
In Britland, oldernessness His skin, whose is it? Too beautiful The best thing for you to do is hide
He's been waiting so long Yeah, he's been waiting so long For the right month to go He's been waiting all night long
(Past it!) (Past it!)
Loneness, in Britland Olderness, his skin, who's is it? Too beautiful She's say
Best thing, best thing, Long nights in Britland Underness, his skin, whose is it Too beautiful, best thing, best thing for to do is hide
She's off to Venice with the girls He's off to Venice with the girls He's been waiting so long Lonesome lonely Lonesome lonely Lonesome lonely Lonesome lonely
(Past it!) (Past it!) (Past it!) (Past it!)
He's been waiting so long He's been waiting so long He's been waiting so long He's been waiting so long He's been waiting so long He's been waiting so long Lonesome lonely Lonesome lonely
She's off to Venice with the girls He's been waiting so long She's off to Venice with the girls He's been waiting so long She's off to Venice with the girls Lonesome lonely She's off to Venice with the girls Lonesome lonely
