Billy Liar Lyrics - Her Majesty - Decemberists

Billy Liar's got his hands in his pockets 

Staring over at the neighbor's, knickers down 

He's got his knickers down 

So the summer is eternity for you? 

Sleeping in until your father's shaking you down 

He's shaking you down 

And the mail room shift gets a real short shrift 

As you dole out the packages, no-one seems to want you around 

All skulking around

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

Let your legs loll on the lino 

Till your sinews spoil 

Will you stay here, for awhile, dear 

Till the radio plays something familiar? 

Plays something familiar 

All a-drifting, he's a no good boy-o 

Sent a-fishing for a whalebone corset frame 

His only catch all day 

So he sits and lets the current take him 

A gentle breeze will leave his pants in disarray 

And at his ankles laid 

As he drifts to sleep with a moan and a weep 

He is decked by a Japanese geisha with a garland of pearls 

How she twists and twirls!

Till the radio plays something familiar? 

Plays something familiar 

Plays something familiar
