The Tiger Lillies - Souvenirs lyrics
[The Tiger Lillies - Souvenirs lyrics]
He's been around the world and
Much of it was queer
He got a nasty little rash
From a brothel in Tangiers
A knife it missed his artery
In a harem in Algiers and from a whore in
Rotterdam he got Gonorrhoea
Now he works the fairground
Looks back on his career
And anyone who's interested he
Shows his souvenirs
He lost a finger and an arm to a grenadier
He lost an eye in Africa to a bushman's spear
He's been in wicked storms on
All the seven seas he's had scurvy and the
Plague and tropical disease
Now he works the fairground
Looks back on his career
And anyone who's interested he
Shows his souvenirs
Much of it was queer
He got a nasty little rash
From a brothel in Tangiers
A knife it missed his artery
In a harem in Algiers and from a whore in
Rotterdam he got Gonorrhoea
Now he works the fairground
Looks back on his career
And anyone who's interested he
Shows his souvenirs
He lost a finger and an arm to a grenadier
He lost an eye in Africa to a bushman's spear
He's been in wicked storms on
All the seven seas he's had scurvy and the
Plague and tropical disease
Now he works the fairground
Looks back on his career
And anyone who's interested he
Shows his souvenirs
