lyrics

We're going on a honeymoon
We're going in June
We'll be taking a room by the blue lagoon
I'll be crooning this tune beneath the silvery moon

We'll watch the Scandaroons
In the afternoon
Forming demilunes when it's opportune
Do Be De Do Do, De Do Be De Do

Why do we have to go?
It's great in Glasgow, it's only five below
We'll go down to the Clyde and take formaldehyde
That's how my mother died
And I cried

Though young Conservatives Politically purgative
Mentally vegetative
Their love was agglutative

We'll leave the octuplets
That you had for a bet
Delivered by the Vet at the maisonette
While I was in Tibet with the architect

I wrote a rondolet
On a beautiful day
Drinking Chardonnay and cafe au lait
In a Chevrolet near the Bay of Biscay

I still don't want to go
I'd prefer Mexico, or even Borneo
I want to do him in while on the dunnikin
I'll give him catechin

The feudal right to maritage
Extinct except in Stevenage
Exclusive to the privileged
Who manufacture sausages

Those were the days my friend
I thought they'd never end
They drove me round the bend

Da da da da da da
