in '67, his debut year, a p**** cat did appear
in soho bars rather shady,
a most discerning, misleading lady
he knew marlene, judy was a friend
hey! johnny ray, all those that bend
a legend born, on a london stage
when ginger beers, were outrage!
mr. p****. mr. p****.
nante! no nante! nante parlare
vada omi! you silly cow!
come see a star shine,
come see him laughing through a mask of tears
he should have been in the movies....
you know those movies that make you cry
"oh! immortalise me! oh! immortalise me!
write a song, write a sad song,
make it 25 years a long.... oh!"
....says mr. p****.... mmmh.... mr. p****.
