Big Bad Thing

Jazz Butcher


Well I got off the ship looking for a new kind of cooking 
But the only thing I found was this 
It's a different kind of weather altogether 
And I never got the horrors like I got from this 
Ah, jump back, dump that scratch it out and leave it flat 
I'm not sure this is going to work out. 
It's a big bad thing and it's made out of tin 
And I'd like to be told just what it's all about 
So I lose all my bearings, can't find where I live, 
Now I'm standing at this door 
A being from another planet opens up the door 
And says: yeeeessss? 
Vhat You Vhant? 

Now I refuse to believe it could possibly breathe 
The same atmosphere as me 
I try to be polite and say I made a mistake 
Bu the trouble is I'm shaking like a Christmas tree 
So here I am on the doorstep or somewhere or other 
I'm trying to communicate, I don't know why I bother 
The conversation's limited to say the very least 
It's always: yes? 
Vhat You Vhant? 
I wanna get out of here (questions and answers) 
Vhat You Vhant? 
I wanna get out of here (questions and answers) 

So here come's the thing that isn't a thing 
Running down the line when the telephone rings 
Here comes a voice that I'm learning to dread 
It's in my head! 
Vhat You Vhant? 
I wanna get out of here (questions and answers) 
It's just too damned tough 
I got C.I.D. protection, but that just isn't enough. 
Bye-bye 
Mummamammamow. Bye-bye 

Vhat You Vhant?
