Viva La Feeder (with apologies to Chris Martin)

[Long Live Life]

Someone asked me to dig out the Viva La Feeder I wrote back in summer 08 at last week's gig in response to Chris saying "he looked fat" at the time.

 

Sorry I can't remember who it was who asked (it was last week) but I remembered today:

 

(apologies to Chris for desecrating such a beautiful song) :)

 

 

Viva La Feeder

 

I used to booze the world

Barrels dry when I gave the word

Now in the morning I sleep alone

Piss in the streets I used to own

 

I used to roll the ice

Feel the fear in my publican's eyes

Listen as the crowd would sing:

"Now the old king is drunk! Long drink the king!"

 

One minute I fe-el boozy,,

Next the trousers, don't fit me

And I discovered that my waist-line stands

Upon pillars of salt, and pillars of cans

 

I hear Jerusalem artichokes are singeing,

Roman meals we are a-bingeing

Be my breakfast, my lunch and dinner

The Michelin stars are just a winner!

For some reason I can't explain

Once you've gone there was never,ever a healthy curd

That was when I boozed the world!

(Ohhh)

 

It was the wicked and wild tins

Broke them all, and scoffed therein.

Shattered diets and the sight of crumbs

People couldn't believe how fat I'd become

Dieticians wait

For my head on a silver plate

Just a fatty on a lonely string

Oh who would ever want to be thin?

 

I hear Jerusalem artichokes are singeing,

Roman meals we are a-bingeing

Be my breakfast, my lunch and dinner

The Michelin stars are such a winner!

For some reason I can't explain

I know Weight- Watchers won't call my name

Never a healthy curd

And that was when I boozed the world

(Ohhhhh Ohhh Ohhh)
