Fat Lady Of Limbourg - 2004 Digital Remaster

Well, I rang up Pantucci, spoke to Lu-chi
I gave them all they needed to know
If affairs are proceeding as we're expecting
Soon enough, the weak spots will show

I assume you understand that we have options on your time
And will ditch you in the harbour if we must
But if it all works out nicely, you'll get the bonus you deserve
From doctors we trust

The fat lady of Limbourg looked at the samples that we sent
And furrowed her brow
You would never believe that she'd tasted royalty and fame
If you saw her now

But her sense of taste is such that she'll distinguish with her tongue
The subtleties a spectrograph would miss
And announce her decision while demanding her reward
The jellyfish kiss

Now we checked out this duck quack who laid a big egg, oh, so black
It shone just like gold
And the kids from the city, finding it pretty, took it home
And there, it was sold

It was changing hands for weeks 'til someone left it by their fire
And it melted to a puddle on the floor
For it was only a candle, a Roman scandal, oh
Now it's a pool

That's what we're paid for, that's what we're paid for
That's what we're paid for here
That's what we're paid for, that's what we're paid for
That's what we're paid for here
