Anyone For Tennis

Twice apon a time

In the valley of the tears

An auctioneer is bidding

For a box of fading years

And the elephants are dancing

On the graves of squeeling mice

Anyone for tennis?

Wouldn't that be nice



And the ice creams are all melting

On the streets of bloody beard

While the beggars stain the pavements

With florecent Christmas cheer

And the Bentley driving guru

Is putting up his price

Anyone for Tennis?

Wouldn't that be nice



And the Prophets in the boutiques

Give out messages of hope

With gingle bells

and fairy tales

and blind providing scopes

and you can tell that all their saying

Underneath the pretty lights

Anyone for tennis?

Wouldn't that be nice



Yellow buddist monkeys

playing brightly at the zoo

you can bring a bowl of rice

and then a glass of water

To her to taste



Setting up the chess board

While death roles out the dice

Anyone for tennis?

Wouldn't that be nice
