Silk Pyjamas Lyrics - Astronauts & Heretics - Thomas Dolby

Silk pyjamas, silk pyjamas 

She was wearing silk pyjamas 

Usual outfit, big pith helmet 

Dr. Martens and silk pyjamas 

Said it was driving her round the bend 

Just sitting and waiting for the phone to ring 

Should have been back around half past ten 

And has anybody seen my friend? 

She's so lovely in her green and red 

Silk pyjamas can't have gone far 

Where's the high street? Where's the river? 

How's the bugger going to manage? 

Doesn't speak a word of Spanish 

Said it was driving her half insane 

To live in a city with no underground train 

She took her umbrella and her biscuit tin 

And she wandered off into the smog 

For a slurpy and a tofu dog, singing 

Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo 

Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo 

Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo 

Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo 

Silk pyjamas, silk pyjamas 

She was wearing silk pyjamas 

In the daytime in the night 

She was wearing silk pyjamas 

Silk pyjamas, silk pyjamas 

She was wearing silk pyjamas 

Usual outfit, big pith helmet 

Silk pyjamas, no elastic 

Big pith helmet that she came by 

Somewhere on the Bakerloo line 

Have you seen her silk pyjamas? 

She was wearing silk pyjamas
