Look! No Strings!
Chumbawamba
look, no strings
just paper glue and card
hark the angels sing
paste the lord
that was the Armley tabernacle choir
next, we'll be hearing the true story of an American housewife who claims to have taken mid-air photographs of Jesus Christ over the skies of Indiana.
high above the streets and houses
Mrs. Meta Battle
with one hand on the valium
and one hand on the bottle
somewhere over Indiana
eight miles high
Meter Battle sees the good lord wandering across the sky
having fun whilst you're alive
you won't get nothing when you die
have a good time all the time
because you won't get nothing when you die
godsmacked William Shatnered
Meta does a double take
come on baby,
do the camera shake
half-expecting from the aisle
a certain Mr. Beadle
watching you, watching us
watching Mrs. Meta Battle
having fun whilst you're alive
you won't get nothing when you die
have a good time all the time
because you won't get nothing when you die
look, no strings
just paper glue and card
hark the angels sing
paste the lord
Meta Battle shot her lord
and watched him tumble down
and now there's people out with Polaroids all around town
and who knows, that Jesus
on the church near your house
may well be the original
kiss it as you pass
having fun whilst you're alive
you won't get nothing when you die
have a good time all the time
because you won't get nothing when you die
look, no strings
just paper glue and card
hark the angels sing
paste the lord
