Lyrics Whipping Boy

Whipping Boy

Pat The Almighty

Oh here he comes you'd better watch your step, Pat the

Almighty

Pat looks at you from the corner of his eye

Like he's really interested in the person deep inside

A natural curiosity, an attention seekin' atrocity

He likes his music indie and his hair bleached like the

sand

Bleached like the sand

Oh here he comes you'd better watch your step, Pat the

Almighty

Oh here he comes you'd better wash your hands, Pat the

Almighty

Pat sips his drink from the corner of his eye

He's a real smooth operator, an eco-friendly guy

He used to be a Marxist but now he's found a band

And he thinks that he's a heathen (hedon) but in fact

he loves his hat

He loves his hat

The kid's a fucking star he should be wearing gold

lamé

There'll be nothing left for no-one at the end of the

day

The kid's a fucking star he should learn to move and

sway

If he'd only stay in tune we could all be on our way

Oh here he comes you'd better watch your step, Pat the

Almighty

Oh here he comes you'd better watch your chords, Pat

the Almighty

Pat moves in circles that keep on going round

He's a carousel without a tune, the best ride in town

Pat taps when he's drinking, especially when he's

thinking

He believes in getting in there, he's a king of all the

facts

Of all the facts

The kid's a fucking star he should be wearing gold

lamé

There'll be nothing left for no-one at the end of the

day

The kid's a fucking star he should learn to move and

sway

If he'd only stay in tune we could be all on our way

Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh

Was jukebox in the bedroom, Coke machine in the hall

And a rake of rare guitars hanging on the wall

Golddust in the bathroom, platinum on the door

A pocket calculator keeping tabs on it all

The kid's a fucking star he should be wearing gold

lamé (golden egg)

There'll be nothing left for no-one at the end of the

day

The kid's a fucking star he should learn to move and

sway

If he'd only stay in tune we could be all on our way

Oh here he comes you'd better wash your hands, Pat the

Almighty

Oh here he comes you'd better watch your step, Pat the

Almighty
