Country Club
From the flushed cheeks of the powdered women
And their cock-eyed men
It ended my head
They'd all being screwing
While dressing for dinner
Every room had a wall-mounted sink
And a mottled, and mildewed hunting scene
The widowed baroness sat on her isms
Like a dodo hatching a Fabergé egg
Under the table
Many hands went a-wall
To wash down the snotty oysters
I swigged the lemony scent in the finger bowl
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Slaying
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Slaying
A string quartet sword through
I am the walrus
Some retired to the billiard room
Or took to the terrace for coffee and Cognac
Other smokes skunk in the swimming pool
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Pinned hairdos and strapless shoulders (hoo-ooh)
Floated on lily pads of silken ball gowns (hoo-ooh)
(Slaying)
Gentlemen in white shirts and black tail coats
Were killer whales crossed with deformed tadpoles (hoo-ooh)
Hoo-ooh
(Slaying)
Your little pinky hovered over the shrimp fork
Then counterbalanced the gilded teacup
And their cock-eyed men
It ended my head
They'd all being screwing
While dressing for dinner
Every room had a wall-mounted sink
And a mottled, and mildewed hunting scene
The widowed baroness sat on her isms
Like a dodo hatching a Fabergé egg
Under the table
Many hands went a-wall
To wash down the snotty oysters
I swigged the lemony scent in the finger bowl
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Slaying
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Slaying
A string quartet sword through
I am the walrus
Some retired to the billiard room
Or took to the terrace for coffee and Cognac
Other smokes skunk in the swimming pool
Hoo-ooh
Hoo-ooh
Pinned hairdos and strapless shoulders (hoo-ooh)
Floated on lily pads of silken ball gowns (hoo-ooh)
(Slaying)
Gentlemen in white shirts and black tail coats
Were killer whales crossed with deformed tadpoles (hoo-ooh)
Hoo-ooh
(Slaying)
Your little pinky hovered over the shrimp fork
Then counterbalanced the gilded teacup
