Small Black Reptile

Bruce Gilbert, Colin Newman, Graham Lewis, Robert Grey

Sporting effects
In a small black reptile
Broadened at the shoulder
And the swing at the hips

Room for a big fish
A crack of whips
Demander of service
And generous tips

Narrow in the eye
And the puller of wool
The bow on the purse strings
Diaries full, arrangements fixed

Room for a big fish
A crack of whips
Demander of service
And generous tips

Badges of office
Extensive plates
Cultivating pets
Expensive dates

Room for a big fish
A crack of whips
Demander of service
And generous tips

A crossing of arms
The sucking of cheeks
The appetite rich
From scaling peaks

Room for a big fish
A crack of whips
Demander of service
And generous tips
