Jack Hayter - BBC Eyes lyrics

These songs about girls do not have the ring of truth about them anymore We have told all our best stories three or four times now You're looking at me with thise Birdy-bright c**aine eyes again We'll be Gibber-jabber Jabber-gibber Gibberjabbering Another line and Jorge Navarro Becomes Pica**o Fantastico We talk in homilies and mumbo-jumbo The universal language of the drunkard Swaggering up Spanish roads with arms around each other Talking homilies and mumbo jumbo. Like "Many a word makes a book" Or " Many a worm makes a pile of bones" "Far better than sitting at home with somebody else's words in your mouth" Another drink and sweet Jesus may become Gaudi "Build me a doll's house out of used bottle tops". It gets you by In Madrid Understood In Bilbao You may get lost in Barcelona But pretty girls will always find you in Valencia. We sang one last hymn to the sweet, sweet punk rock kids of Spain They were looking at us with those Birdy-bright c**aine eyes again Gibber-jabber Jabber-gibber Gibberjabbering Homilies and mumbo jumbo The universal language of the drunkard.
