What Do You Get

from Madhouse of Invention by The Contrast

/

lyrics

what do you get if you cross a pig with a fly
something big and mean in the evening sky
what do you get if you cross a man with a flea
something talking rubbish you can hardly see

what do you get if you cross a squid with a bat
or a vulture with a vintage trilby hat
or a panther with a purple swarm
am i getting close am i getting warm
am i getting close am i getting warm

i won’t fall for the big blue killer van
i won’t fall for the propaganda idiot plan
i won’t fall for the man-eating credit card
i won’t fall but i know it’s gonna be hard

what do you get if you cheat and lie and scheme
if you talk a lot but never say what you mean
your experiments always take too long
and you say you’re right but you know you’re wrong
am i getting close am i getting warm
