Premiata Forneria Marconi - Is My Face On Straight ? testo (lyrics)

Inflate you waistcoat, wind down your eyes
Tie on your best smile, check your disguise
Dryclean your old jokes, practise despair
Hide your relations under the stairs
You're invited to attend the
Turkey party convention isn't that nice?
You can leave your troubles at the door

We have ways to make you cheer
As long as you're not sick or poor
A negro or a queer
We can fit you with a suit of clothes
That will make you look like us
An appointments book and a new outlook
A ladder or a truss

Have another cup of reality
Drink and drink some more!

You can own a boat, a house, a car
Or live like Howard Hughes
Come on what have you got to lose

And if you're discreet there
Are pleasures sweet
You can even swap your wife
If you only sign the dotted une
You'11 be fine oh so fine

Thank you for joining here are your pills
The man in the white coat
WilI send you the bill
Would you like to meet
Our most distinguished member a
Doctor Faustus by name!

Is my face on straight?
Will they laugh at the gate
Oh, I mustn' t be late
Is my face on straight?
Is my face on straight?
Will they let me throught the gate
Oh, I mustn't be late
Is my face on straight is my face on straight
Is my face on straight?
