Deer Park

[Verse 1] I took a walk down West 11 I had to wade through 500 European punks At an off-license I rubbed up with some oiks Who threw some change on the Asian counter And asked polite if they could have two lagers A hospital discharge asked me where he could crash [Chorus] Have you been to the English Deer Park? It's a large type artist ranch This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark Have you been to the English Deer Park? [Verse 2] Spare a thought for the sleeping promo dept They haven't had an idea in two years Dollars and deutchmarks keep the company on its feet Say have you ever have a chance to meet Fat Captain Beefheart imitators with zits? Who is the King Shag Corpse? [Chorus] Have you been to the English Deer Park? It's a large type minstrel ranch This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark Have you been to the English Deer Park? [Verse 3] The young blackies get screwed up the worst They've gone over to the Hampstead house suss An English system they implicitly trust See the A&R civil servants They get a sex thrill out of a sixteenth of Moroccan They get a sex thrill out of a sixteenth of Moroccan [Chorus] Have you been to the English Deer Park? It's a large type artist ranch This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark Have you been to the English Deer Park? [Verse 3] Yes, dear chap, it hasn't changed that much It's still a subculture art-dealer jerk-off Yes, dear chap, it hasn't changed that much It's still a subculture art-dealer jerk-off [Chorus] Have you been to the English Deer Park? It's a large type minstrel ranch This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark Have you been to the English Deer Park? Have you been to the English Deer Park? It's a large type minstrel ranch This is where loads of punks congregate in the dark Have you been to the English Deer Park? Have you been to the English Deer Park? It's a large type minstrel ranch This is where C Wilson wrote Ritual in the Dark Have you been to the English Deer Park?
