Break a mirror Roll the dice Run with scissors through a chip and fryer fight Go into business with a grizzly bear But just don’t sit down 'cause I've moved your chair Find a well-known hard man And start a fight Weigh your chances on bonfire night Fill in a circular hole with a peg that's square But just don't sit down 'cause I've moved your chair Oh Yeah yeah yeah Oh Yeah yeah yeah Bite the lightning But tell me how it tastes Kung-fu fighting On your roller skates Do the Macarena in the devil's lair But just don’t sit down 'cause I've moved your chair Oh Yeah yeah yeah Oh Yeah yeah yeah Oh Yeah yeah yeah Oh
