The Fall - Athlete Cured lyrics
[The Fall - Athlete Cured lyrics]
Look under look under
From the hotbed of creation in dreamstate
The cure, bulletin, zeitung was in no pill
Look under the cure was in no pill
The German athletic star was continually ill
For months doctors were puzzled
The star would complain of the
Smell in his room
On visiting him this was found to be true
An odor resembling hot dogs
Permeated the whole bedroom
A solution was only discovered by my closely
Watching his brother Gert
Gert was handsome, well-meaning
But slightly a careless type not malicious
I hope you understand and grasp no chance
But on returning from his clerical job, Gert
Would park his Volkswagen at the
End of the day willy-nilly in the driveway
Usually the wrong way round
So that the exhaust fumes would
Flow upwards right through
The open windows of the
Athletic star's upstairs bedroom
(Carburettor)
I also discovered that Gert
Would turn his engine
Over for up to an hour i don't know why
Citizens in my street are also
Partial to this
Look under the cure was in no pill
Obtaining a new parking space
For Gert's motor-car, athletic star soon
Recovered
Unfortunately, this being East Germany
Gert patriotically volunteered to be
Sent on a labor
Beautification course of the countryside
North-west of Dresden and never seen again
And never seen again
Look under the cure was in no pill
Had to look under the window sill
The window sill
Look under the cure was in no pill
Had to look under the window sill
The window sill
From certain facts you have to
Go on and further and often it is better to
Go around or look under the windowsill
Etc etc
From the hotbed of creation in dreamstate
The cure, bulletin, zeitung was in no pill
Look under the cure was in no pill
The German athletic star was continually ill
For months doctors were puzzled
The star would complain of the
Smell in his room
On visiting him this was found to be true
An odor resembling hot dogs
Permeated the whole bedroom
A solution was only discovered by my closely
Watching his brother Gert

But slightly a careless type not malicious
I hope you understand and grasp no chance
But on returning from his clerical job, Gert
