Divine Comedy, The
Assume The Perpendicular
Slip on your Barber jacket, jump in my old MGWe're off to the depths of Somerset to see what we can see see seeWe don't wanna drink the cider, we don't wanna walk for milesWe just want to go to a stately home built in the Georgian styleI can't abide a horizontal lifeIt's time to rise, assume the perpendicularJump up and down, make complimentary soundsAnd talk about nothing in particularCrunch up the gravel driveway, gasp at the grand facadeJust for today we're lords and ladies, oh what a gay charade!Lavinia loves the lintels - Anna, the architravesBen's impressed by the buttresses thrust up the chapel knaveI can't abide a horizontal lifeIt's time to rise, assume the perpendicularJump up and down, make funny little soundsAnd talk about nothing in particularWe'll walk the grounds by Capability BrownGet lost for days inside the manicured mazeWe'll bump our heads jumping on a four-post bedAnd we'll ride for freeOn the ladders round the walls of the circular libraryLetras de cancionesI can't abide a horizontal lifeIt's time to rise, assume the perpendicularJump up and down, make wild ecstatic soundsAnd talk about nothing in particularNothing in particular
