Brian Top marks for not trying So kind of you to bless us With your effortlessness We're grateful and so strangely comforted And I wonder Are you putting us under 'Cause we can't take our eyes Off the t-shirt and ties combination? Well, see you later, innovator Some want to kiss, some want to kick you There's not a net you couldn't slip through Or at least that's the impression I get 'Cause you're smooth, and you're wet And she's not aware yet But she's yours She'll be saying, "use me Show me the jacuzzi" I imagine that it's there on a plate Your whole rendezvous rate Means that you'll never be frightened To make them wait for a while I doubt it's your style Not to get what you set Out to acquire, the eyes are on fire You are the unforecasted storm (Brian) calm, collected and commanding (Top marks for not trying) You leave the other stories standing With your renditions and jokes Bet there's hundreds of blokes That have wept 'cause you've stolen their Thunder Are you putting us under 'Cause we can't take our eyes Off the t-shirt and ties combination? Well, see you later, innovator
