Fugue 1 More Is More Gluttony lyrics

Vocals - Joe Jackson]

Let it rain, let it rain
Let it rain, let it pour
We'll have one for the road,
put the bolt on the door
Let it rain cats and dogs
Let it rain rats and snakes
But just bring us more grog
And another red steak

Let it rain, let it hail
Let it rain frogs and toads
But just bring us some ale,
we'll have ten for the road
Let it blow, let it roar
Let it rain bats from Hell
Wipe their arses and pluck 'em,
we'll eat them as well

Did you hear about Clyde
Who ate ribs 'til he died
At a sign that said
'All You Can Eat For Ten Bob'
When the doctors were done
pumping out his insides
He went back the next
morning to finish the job

Let the skies turn to black
Let it rain kangaroos
But just give us tobacco
and tucker and booze
So who cares about Heaven
Or burning beneath
When we're all busy digging
our graves with our teeth

Did you hear about Matt
who fell into a vat
Well they say that he drowned
but it took him a week
And they say that it wasn't
as strange as all that
When you think that he kept
getting out for a leak

Let it rain, let it flood
Let 'em load up the Ark
Bring us buckets of blood,
while they sink in the dark
Give 'em two vegetarians
And two of the poor
And two of the tossers
who say less is more
