Nutted By Reality

Nick Lowe · Jesus Of Cool [2008]

Well I heard they castrated Castro

I heard they cut off everything he had

What a dirty low down thing to do

To mess him up like that

They dumped him in the jungle

In the land of the sugar cane

Ever since the day they fiddled around

I said he ain't never been the same



I said oh-La

I say oh-La

We say oh-La



Well I heard they castrated Castro

Because he was the people's friend

They told him once and they told him twice

Said I ain't gonna tell you again



They put a bit of pressure on him

That's when he told them what they could do

So the word came down from a northern town

Ã???Set up a jungle rendezvousâ??



I said oh-La

I say oh-La

We say oh-La



He had been livin' in a different world

Then he was nutted by reality

He had been living in another tree

Then he flew down

To see what happened



I went out to see my sister

She was not in

So I went and bought a paper

Then I returned

She was well into the racing

On the TV

She has never been that fond of me

I went and turned her over



See I'd been livin' in a different world

Then I was nutted by reality

I had been living in another tree

Then I flew down

To see what happens



I was listening to an echo

I was impressed

Even though I couldn't see it

It was the most

I was jumping and a-gleeing at every one

I was speaking in a foreign tongue

My pleasure gave no pleasure



See I'd been livin' in a different world

Then I was nutted by reality

I had been living in another tree

Then I flew down

To see what happened
