Quality Of Life

Quality Of Life

Phaedrus asked: 'What is good and what is not good?'
I want to leave the same boat that we're all in,
you can't, grow up and keep bailing mon ami,
perhaps then you'll reserve your place in history.

Questionaire ( I went for a job as a film extra once ),
Can you swim? Yes. We don't want you to drown 
if you're thrown into a swimming pool. Can you ride?
Of course. A friend of mine was never seen again.

They chose me as a soldier in Roman times,
standing in the hot sun all day holding a lance,
earning a pittance. Suddenly Jesus was dragged by,
he asked me: 'You're not Charlton Heston are you?'

No, I wasn't, if I was, I'd have given him some water;
'Extra, extra, read all about it' - we will, forever more.
