She chose the soft centre and took it to bed with her mother.

And the ideal confusion was just an illusion -

to gain further news of her bro - ther.

And the comfort of mother was just an appeal for protection.

For the cat from next door was found later at 4 - in surgical dissec - tion.

Chorus

And I don't want to be the son of any freak.

Who for a chocolate centre can take you off the street.

For soon they'll plough the desert and God knows where I'll be.

Collecting submarine numbers - on the main street of the sea.

The Vicar is thicker and I just can't see through to him.

For his cardinal sings a collection of hymns,

and a collection of coins is made af - ter.

And who wrote the Bible - was it Judas or Pilate.

Well one cleans his hands while the other one hangs -

but still I continue to stand.
