Cape and Stick Gang

歌詞

Word comes down on the party line All the suckers on the grapevine are saying: 'Look out boys, here come the Capes and Sticks!' And they jitter with the funk down Bulblight Lane When the phone in the phonebox rings again And it's the Cape and Stick Gang saying 'Just hang around And we'll stick it to you quick! ' We're the Cape and Stick Boys Whistling Lillie Langtry How we laugh when we hear them sigh The girls who never catch our eye Wear capes and carry sticks And the gang is gay And the rookie's in the alley with his home-made drag in a polythene bag And the rookie say 'Uh oh, looks like I got out the wrong side of my bed today!' Cos the Capes and Sticks are waiting for him And they pierce his ears with a safety pin And the rookie's trying to laugh it off saying 'I was thinking of doing that anyway' They mount a double-decker with their Lyons Maids Sit down on either side of a girl with braids With too much lipstick on her too-thin lips And a handbag made of lizard And the Cape in front of her charms her Smiles in her face and disarms her And when they kiss the Stick behind her Cut off her braids with a pair of folding scissors Singing: We're the Cape and Stick Boys Lillie is our heroine We play pool all through the air raid Rape machines in the game arcade Wear capes and carry sticks And the gang is gay Well they don't need knives for their sweet attacks Just the sticks they keep down the front of their slacks Big as a family heirloom, Daddy's randy hand me-down And for a couple of crowns they'll take you to the docks Whistling Lillie as they pull out their cocks Drag you to the top of the gantry Dangle you fifty feet above the ground, singing: We're the Cape and Stick Boys Whistling Lillie Langtry How we laugh when we hear them sigh The girls who never catch our eye Wear capes and carry sticks And the gang is gay And on every man's hip there's a thermos flask If you want a sip all you've got to do is ask Maybe it's bromide tea or maybe ecstasy They kiss the girls and make them cry Then they kiss the boys, they're real bi-guys And we've all got to die some way, some day You follow me?
