Theme De Yoyo
Your head is like a yoyo,
Your neck is like the string,
Your body's like camembert
Oozing from its skin, yeah.
Your fanny's like two sperm whales
Floating down the Seine,
Your voice is like a long fuck
That's music to your brain, yeah.
Your eyes are two blind eagles
That kill what they can't see,
Your hands are like two shovels
Diggin' in me.
And your love is like an oil well,
Dig, dig, dig, dig it,
On the Champs-Élysées, yeah.
Your head is like a yoyo,
Your neck is like the string,
Your body's like camembert
Oozing from its skin, yeah.
Your fanny's like two sperm whales
Floating down the Seine, yeah,
Your voice is like a long fuck
That's music to your brain.
Your eyes are two blind eagles
That kill what they can't see,
Your hands are like two shovels
Diggin' in me, yeah.
And your love is like an oil well,
Dig, dig, dig, dig it,
On the Champs-Élysées, yeah
Your neck is like the string,
Your body's like camembert
Oozing from its skin, yeah.
Your fanny's like two sperm whales
Floating down the Seine,
Your voice is like a long fuck
That's music to your brain, yeah.
Your eyes are two blind eagles
That kill what they can't see,
Your hands are like two shovels
Diggin' in me.
And your love is like an oil well,
Dig, dig, dig, dig it,
On the Champs-Élysées, yeah.
Your head is like a yoyo,
