Flicking through back catalogues Of Naxos and Deutsche Grammophon For only like the hundredth time today Another dusty recording Of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony We'll pass the list along to James Flicking through the bargain bins A bony finger on his chin And one eye on the darkie at the door So leave in those security tags And slap that sticker on his bag Pass the cunt along to James

Ten minute break What the fuck should I do? Time for a smoke Or should I eat a food? Hollywood's so greasy And the dairy's out-of-date If Wanda won't stop talking I'll stab her in the face! Ten minute break What the fuck should I do? Need to drop the cosby's off But someone's in the loo Chris Hart is talking Why can he not see Don't care about the markdown I fucking need to pee! Just got in the kitchen There's a call out for me Sarah's eating tuna Casper stole my seat Ten minute break Then I'm back on my feet Need to check my facies I think I'll take fifteen!
