Wake up

Put on my riot gear

But in the study of my house

I've got a smoking jacket passed to me from grand daddy

It's made of bow and arrow meat

Do do do do do do

Do do do do do do

Come home

Take off my riot gear

Put on my smoke jacket

But in the library of my house I have a laugh

Medieval jokes are just as funny now

If you've got a degree

Heaven help the ones who know

What makes the world go slow

Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock

The night comes

Time to go on the town

And in my best

Sashimi dress

And marble arch supporting shoes

I am a vision in my horse-drawn tank

Da da da da da da

Da da da da da da

Stay out

Drinking into the night

And they are saying those same things

And I'm like "ha, ha, ha, hee, hee, hee"

'til half-past three

And then it's time for me to go

Heaven help the ones who know

What makes the world go slow

What makes the world go slow

Come home

Take off my tuna dress

Put on my collard greens

And in my sleep

What dreams may come

Before I'm woken by alarms

Put on my riot gear
