RICOCHET (P.Connolly) 3.27
Brilliant disguise
Didn’t see it coming, it came a quite a blow
When she looked me in the eye
How was I supposed to know?
Felt like I was dreaming & I tried to look away
Till she whispered “Hallo gorgeous!
My name is Ricochet”…
Thought that I was done for, tried to grab a drink
Only see her once before, she was dressed in pink
She said “Is that your horse outside”
I said “The black or grey”? She said
“If you come for a ride with me, you’ll really make my day”
Ricochet! Ricochet! I never though I’d live to see the day
Ricochet! Ricochet! Be careful if you go the other way
It was like a bolt of lightening, she swept me off my feet
I began to fall in love with her just riding down the street
I was chasing happy, I don’t care what people say
I’ve been getting nothing, well not since early May
|
Taught me how to Rumba, taught me how to sing
How to do the Boogaloo, how to do my thing
Showed me how to win when I was on a losing game
How to sink a bottle & still pronounce her name
Ricochet! Ricochet! I never though I’d live to see the day
Ricochet! Ricochet! Be careful if you go the other way
But when she took her clothes off, well I got quite a shock
She shopped around the corned & she chased me round the block
Down to Brighton Station & I jumped up on the train
Saw her standing in the distance, she was screaming out my name
I’m changing my direction, I’ve been kinda lost
I thought she was the girl for me, I got my wires crossed
But I know where I’m going, I got nothing to defend
Back off to Australia yeah that’ll be the end of
Ricochet! Ricochet! I never though I’d live to see the day
Ricochet! Ricochet! Careful if you go the other way |
