KEVIN COYNE LYRICS - K

 

Karate King (Kevin Coyne - 1973) (MARJORY RAZORBLADE)

Yeah they call him the Karate King

Chopping children down like trees

Bringing cows to their knees

Making their udders bleed

Now they call him the Karate King

Top of the shop in his robe

Nothing there can grow when he's around

Going chop-chop (x3) down in the gymnasium

They call him the Karate King

Like a bird on a wing

Standing posing at the window, at the door in his vest

His white and muscled flexing at all the passing girls

Smashing his way through the window frames

Ripping apart his mother's pearls

They're dying on the dressing table

Chop-chop (x4)

So if you see the Karate King

Help him, help him

Maybe you'll tie, tie his shoe laces

Come on, come on, comment on his pomaded hair

Tell him he would have been an excelent kamikaze pilot in the Second World War

Cause that's what he wants to hear, that's what he wants to hear, in the gymnasium

Chop-chop (x3)

Keep it Burning (Something's Coming your Way) (Kevin Coyne - 1979?) ( (ROCK GARDEN 9 10 79)

Keep your lamps, keep them burning, keep your lamps, keep them burning, keep your lamps, keep them burning

The ?? is on his way

Don't you worry, don't you worry, don't you worry, everything is coming your way

Keep your lamps, keep them burning, keep your lamps, keep them burning, keep your lamps, keep them burning

Everything is on his way

Don't you worry, don't you worry, don't everybody worry, everything is on its way

Keep it burning, keep it burning, keep it burning, everything is on its way

Keep your lamps, keep them burning, keep your lamps, keep them burning, keep your lamps, keep them burning

Everything is coming your way

Don't you worry, don't you worry, don't anybody worry, everything is on its way

Keep it burning, keep it burning, keep it burning, everything is on its way, everything is coming your way,

It's got to come your way, it's got to come your way, it's got to come your way

Kevin's Happy Home (Kevin Coyne - 1996) (KNOCKING ON YOUR BRAIN)

Well the sun shines down on our happy happy home

Well the sun shines down on our happy home

The postman comes everyday, delivers letters, hear what he says, he kisses you on both cheeks, he could kiss you for weeks and weeks, I don't mind, he can kiss you all day, it's so good down here, I'm so happy here in my happy home

In my happy home

Well the moon shines down on our happy happy home

Well the moon shines down on our happy home

We go to bed early at night, drink our cocoa and put out the light, we feel happy in our little snug bed, I've got no problems in my head, no problems in my head, I'm asleep in my bed, you turn away but I don't mind, turn away but I don't mind in our happy home, in our happy home

In our happy home, in our happy home

God looks down our happy home, the true God looks down our happy home

In the garage, there's a fancy car (x2), Mercedes Benz, BMW,

I 'm happy, how about you? (x8)

In our happy home (x5)

Knocking on your Brain (Kevin Coyne - 1996) (KNOCKING ON YOUR BRAIN)

You've read about me in books, wandering down your lanes, sometimes grinning, sometimes in pain, wearing funny suits, strange pointed hats, laughing at your dog, frightening your cat

Chorus: Knocking on your brain (x4)

I'm full of passion, I shout at the moon, I'm like a flower, almost in bloom, I talk like a razor, I spit blood, I'm out in your countryside, churning up your mud

Chorus

I'll take all your money, I'll buy all your house, I'll steal your wife, I'll take your uncle too, I'll take your grandpa, steal your mother, I want all your family jewels

Chorus (ad lib)
