Fantastic Life - Live

Lyrics

Got eighteen months for espionage
 Too much brandy for breakfast
 And people tend to let you down
 It's a swine.
 Fantastic life
 Dole penicillin to eastern ching plague-ridden
 And one thing I have found
 What you cast out will hit back
 And a man will find he has to deny his
 Fantastic life
 Ours is not to look back
 Ours is to continue the crack
 Met a 54 year old dustbin man
 And '48 he'd been in Jerusalem
 Sold surplus oil to Arab fighters
 For M-cocktails to burn Jewish terrorists
 What a turn-up!
 Fantastic life
 Style's too easy to buy nowadays
 And there's interference with the mail
 And you just can't get out the words
 Some people think if they had a job they'd be well
 Now!
 A fantastic lie!
 The Siberian mushroom Santa
 Was in fact Rasputin's brother
 And he didst walk round Whitechapel
 To further the religion of forgiven sin murder
 Fantastic lie!
 No lie, friend called David
 He said he had a barney on Corporation Street
 He said he told the policeman what he really thought
 But knowing him I don't believe that crap
 A Fantastic lie
 And I just thought I'd tell you
 And I just thought I'd tell you
 About fantastic life
 And I just thought I'd tell you
 Some fantastic lies
 And I just thought I'd tell you
 And I just thought I'd tell you
 I walked right (West) round Wakefield Jail
 A fantastic life
 And I just thought I'd tell you
 And I just thought I'd tell you
