Real Tennis

Lyrics

King Kong hesitates Now he has his love He has no dreams pending He paws at the helicopters Like they were his mother-in-law But capable of flight and refuelling He played real tennis, took manuka Laid down in the firing line No-one noticed he was there No-one noticed he was there He played real tennis, took manuka Laid down in the firing line No-one noticed he was there No-one noticed he was there King Kong ruminates Suppose he is his name? And what they say is accurate He swings from the skyscrapers As if they'd come to symbolise voids That only a father could make up He played real tennis, took manuka Laid down in the firing line No-one noticed he was there No-one noticed he was there He played real tennis, took manuka Laid down in the firing line No-one noticed he was there No-one noticed he was there Maybe it's the time of year Winter is a bitch to live with Soil your lawn with captive ants No-one noticed he was there No one likes a fence-sitter
