XTC - FRIVOLOUS TONIGHT Lyrics

Let us talk aboutSome trivial things we likeA bit of
this and thatLet?s chew the fatPour ourselves a glass
of StoutAnd let our Rael Brook shirts hang outNothing
makes us more contentTo let us wallow in a bit of nonsenseWe?re
all so frivolous tonight, tonightLet?
s reveal our childlike natureAnd leave our stocksAnd
invoices to rotLet?s go to potTell our jokes about
mothers in lawBut watch him jump when she comes through
the doorOh, the party goes with a swingWhen we talk
about the trivial thingsWe?
re all so frivolous tonightBut there?
s always oneWho wants to talk shopWe?
ll drive him through the doorWith a broom or a mopLet
us tell our favorite storyAbout some poor chap who
put it on displayHip hooray and let the girls gather
in their slacksTo talk about husbands hairy backsSome
might think we?re a bit of a showerBut this could be
our finest hourWe?re all so frivolous tonight,
tonightWe?re all so ridiculous tonight
