Outside a bar in toledo
where you had had
more than you're fill
A man stood
rotating a chicken
on a flaming hot
infra-red grill
You staggered up
to him and shouted
with a voice just
like a town cryer
You said, hey mate
your barrel
organ is broken
what's more your
monkey's on fire
But the
andalucian gypsies
have a saying so old
but so true
That for every man
there's a woman
and my darling
I've chosen you
Now you never ate peas
with your knife dear
to do so
you said was a crime
Instead you would
take a celery stalk
and you'd roll 'em down
one at a time
If you eat one more
dumpling you'll burst, dear
one day to you
I had to say
You simply said
well, pass the dumplings
and stand well
back out of the way
But the
andalucian gypsies
have a saying so old
but so true
That for every man
there's a woman
and my darling
I've chosen you
You used to try
to make tea cakes
with a recipe
your mother Lent
In my mouth
they melted like b***er
in my stomach
they set like cement
You used to
experiment daily
with different things
that would fill me
It was just like
playing Russian Roulette
I never knew which
meal would kill me
But the
andalucian gypsies
have a saying so old
but so true
That for every man
there's a woman
and my darling
I've chosen you
On an bar stool
you had a hang over
it used to hang
over the edge
If a drunk should
come in and see you
he'd go straight out
and sign the pledge
Oh, my wife
is one in a million
often have
I heard that said
But you are not
one in a million
you look like you're won
in a raffle instead
But the
andalucian gypsies
have a saying so old
but so true
That for every man
there's a woman
and I had to get
lumbered with you
where you had had
more than you're fill
