Harry James Angus - Singapore lyrics

There's gotta be more than this she said As she cooks your fish and chips And you said I'm an accountant But on the weekend I sail sailing ships The baker sees the world awake Every morning from its dreams And the truckie drives across the land From the mountain to the sea Oh You gotta make that money Is this what you wanna be? It doesn't matter angelina Won't you spend a while with me? And oh, are you happy Are you happy my dear? Life is like a fish That is very hard to spear Oh Singapore Do you hear the pirates roar McDonalds and Christian Dior Where there used to be the finest who*es And when the trade winds blow You look up from your desk To where your grandfather sailed for war In 1944 And He didn't wanna be famous And He didn't want no gold He died for Queen and country Like the warriors of old And Oh, are you happy Are you happy my dear? Life is like a fish That is very hard to spear Oh, oh I love you And While the seas are booming You should try to live a life That could be turned into a movie There are millions of fires In the frangipani night And One day we will die By dust or by the wire By friendship or by tiredness By water or by fire Let's live a lovely life And let's make love tonight And oh, are you happy Are you happy my dear? Life is like fish That is very hard to spear
