Ian Dury - (Take Your Elbow Out Of The Soup) You're Sitting On The Chicken lyrics

To be simple and wise Never tell lies Always pick on someone my own size Could be quite a thing If I make it swing I'll write you a letter or I'll give you a ring Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the chicken Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the chicken Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the chicken Holding you tight is extremely all right If ain't called love then it ain't worth a light, sailor To be sweet and true To the likes of you A promise that time will not undo Would be truly smart And when I make a start I'll come and pick you up in the horse and cart The mouse runs up your leg, it's one o'clock in China The mouse runs up your leg, ooh, it's one o'clock in China The mouse runs up your leg, oh, it's one o'clock in China Oh for the wings of a dove, goodness me, I'm in love Arms of love are open always, all around you closing theirs You're a darling and I love you Signed politely, one who cares Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens Take your elbow out of the soup, you're sitting on the kittens To be simple and wise
