lyrics

Lifeboat, lifeboat let me come aboard.
I'm still working on my character.

This is not the sea of tranquillity.
Take me up, you could always eat me.

After travelling from far out in the stars
stop at planet Earth, and probe the human arse.

Come like gods in a whirling dome
you at porthole, me down below.

Lifeboat lifeboat, hover over here.
I'm nude & pink & sucking on a beer.

I'll take you to our leader, sorry if he's dull
nobody told him, his intelligence not clear.

Life boat, life boat don't tamper with my jeans
Elvis is on mars if you know what that means.

The truth is out there stranger now than fiction
I'm addicted to causes it's effected disposition.

This is not the sea of tranquillity.
The eagle has landed but wait, I need to pee.

Lifeboat, lifeboat let me come aboard
I'm still working on a caricature

You said you'd return like Jesus and Macarthur
it's raining in the cake park, a recipe for disaster.

I've paid for the ticket & I'm still waiting
another hapless victim of carbon dating.

thank you very much
ladies & gentleman
the auditorium has left....
without elvis
