Bauhaus - David Jay/Peter Murphy/Kevin Haskins/Daniel Ash Lyrics

She blamed him for stoking up controversy
In a dreamworld
It's a long way down from heaven's gate
In the absence of a jury

The case continues
White lies
Seal his bitter fate
The case continues

Take a fish and a potato
Hold the fish and the potato
In your hand, in your hand

Put the potato in the fish
Make it digest it
Smash it up, smash it up

Smash it up, smash it up

This is how you make fishcakes
This is how one makes fishcakes
Smash it up, poke it up

Fishcakes, fishcakes
Fishcakes, fishcakes

Put it down the fish
Put it down the fish
Throw it against the wall
Stamp on the fish

Fishcakes, fishcakes
Fishcakes, fishcakes

Throw it on the wall
Smash it on the wall
Throw it on the wall
Smash it on the wall

Fishcakes, fishcakes

Do you always keep drumsticks on the piano?
Take it easy, avoid risks
And if possible, stay at home

Not only is trouble very difficult
But you are advised of staying off ladders
For there may be the danger of performance

There is a lot of stress and strain
Both at work and at home
But we know tomorrow is another day

Naturally enough
The others have been doing their utmost
To match this performance
This is something people get
When they continually drink whiskey
I can't drink, I hardly eat these days

Okay, that's fine
