Van Morrison - Mechanical Bliss lyrics

Mechanical bliss is striking me for
What I believe in a ribbon on the line
And getting in and getting out
Huh, huh, huh huh, huh huh was not like this

No, mechanical bliss was not like this at all
The ribbon on the line
And getting in and getting out
Was not like this
Was not like this, was not like this

Caruthers and Smith said that they
Couldn't come at all
They said that their backs were
Up against the wall
And getting in and getting out
Was not like this
Was not like this, was not like this
But a flash of the list
The flick of a switch
A flick of a switch, you gave me a kiss
I couldn't resist no ooo mechanical bliss

Now Ponsonby-Smith said he really didn't care
About Neville and Chippy who
Really wasn't there
And getting in and getting out
Was not like this was not like this

He's out in the sun, he's sucking his thumb
He's talking to hum, ahhh mechanical bliss

Mechanical bliss will not like this
Mechanical bliss was not like this at all
The ribbon on the line and getting in
And getting out was not like this
Was never, never like this

I couldn't resist the flash of the list
A flick of the switch, the lisp
He talked in a lisp you gave me a kiss
You talked in a lisp
You talked in a liiiiiii eh eh eh sp
Mechanical bliss

Oh, no, no, no, no, no
Nah, nah, nah, nah nah
Dah, da, dah, dah, dah, dah do sCAT!

Dah, da, dah, dah, dah, dah do

OK chaps, stiff upper lip!
