lyrics

Well I like to, sit down, and I like to, stand up as well oh,
Well I like to, make a sound, and I like to, make it all across town,
Well I like to, sit down on the grass, and I like to, eat a little sea-bass,

Well I don't know what I'm talking about, but I say it now,
Well I don't know what I'm talking about, but I say it loud,

Well I like to, listen to the kinks, and I like to, clean my teeth above the sink,
Well I like to, walk around the block, and I like to, wear a fresh pair of socks,
Well I like to, look at aeroplanes, and I like to, look right into outer space,

Well I don't know what I'm talking about, but I say it now,
Well I don't know what I'm talking about, but I say it loud,

I like a comfy chair, and I like to fly in the air,
I like a comfy chair, and I like to fly in the air,
I like a comfy chair, and I like to fly in the air...

When he plugs in and turns electric, a touch of rock ‘n’ roll splendour takes things up a notch. ... more
