Kevin Coyne - Tulip lyrics

Aged Casanova speaking to the tie-dye Slightly fat and nineteen year old who's lived a little lie Down in the darkness where the little glow stares I can spot the average ones I can tell by the hair But you, you shouldn't be here way down on your knees You don't need the this and that and this and that andthis and that You don't need this Chorus: Hey Tulip (x2), you're the strong one Hey Tulip (x2), yours is the long one. Hey hey hey this must be your day Somebody knows your face They remember from '62 When you wore your shoes blue And you had the kind of hairdo they'd never admire You purchased a house and a horse But you're getting much thinner Who's watching the children at home? Who's making your dinner? Chorus Shake it just one time for him You remember your auntie Margaret And your cousin Jim They've been searching for you But you're still down here Just one more small scotch, one more beer Leave, leave, go home To Bradford, Newcastle, somewhere Go back up North, go away They don't want you here (x2) Chorus
