Beginners 101

(album: Theatre Of The Absurd presents C'est La Vie - 2023)

And so it came
Not like other game
Don't stand to close to the flame
Nothing ventured nothing gained

We took the money and gone
A flight to cologne or maybe bon

A suit made from mo hair
A little flair
Some brill creamed hair, yeah

Up over the roof
A rope, a jimmy something waterproof
Where eagles dare
A self proclaimed millionaire

Under a silvery moon
We couldn't finish the job too soon
A nod a wink and uncomfortable glance
The man from the special branch

"Ello son"

I should have known
Something wasn't right
It's beginners 101
Into the night
Before the daylight

We was having fun (having fun)
A little hit and run
One for all and all for one
Finish what we begun

Was it all a charade
A mistake to have stayed
Ain't them bars of gold
A sight to behold
A panama so bold

I should have known
Something wasn't right
It's beginners 101
Into the night
Before the daylight

We should have guessed
Did it pass the idiot test
It's beginners 101
Just a burner phone
This bird has flown
