Red Lights Flashing

Every time 

somebody says

it better,

I give 'em 

the conch.

Like now...

When I see the red lights flashing

I grab my coat and head for the door.

Yeah when I hear your plates go crashing

I know that I can't see you anymore.

Poles apart (stop steaming!).

Artichoke hearts in a pot.

Mr. Clean doesn't mean to be mean.

Oh baby, maybe we

were never meant to be (playacting scenes)

from a movie with flashes

that's name is "Marnie."

It will never last forever

so don't allow the bananas to freeze.

'Cause I see the red lights flashing.

The horse that I backed 

must have been wrong.

One too many toasts

with rose-colored glasses

on a trip to the coast,

filled with practical jokes.

We must have cracked a false dawn.

I see red lights flashing.

I see red lights flashing...
