Athlete Cured lyrics

Artist  : Fall 
Song : Athlete Cured
 
Look under
Look under



From the hotbed of creation
In dreamstate.
The cure, bulletin, zeitung
Was in no pill.
Look under.
The cure was in no pill.



The german athletic star was continually ill.
For months doctors were puzzled.
The star would complain of the smell in his
room.
On visiting him this was found to be true.
An odor resembling hot-dogs permeated the whole
bedroom.



A solution was only discovered by my closely
Watching his brother gert.
Gert was handsome, well-meaning,	but slightly a
careless type.
Not malicious, I hope you understand and grasp.
No chance.



But on returning from his clerical job, gert
Would park his volkswagen at the end of the day
Willy-nilly in the driveway, usually the wrong
way round,
So that the exhaust fumes would flow upwards
right through
The open windows of the athletic star’s upstairs
bedroom.
(carburettor)


I also discovered that gert would turn his
engine
Over for up to an hour. I don’t know why.
Citizens in my street are also
Partial to this.



Look under.
The cure was in no pill.



Obtaining a new parking space for gert’s
motor-car, athletic star soon
Recovered.
Unfortunately, this being east germany,
Gert patriotically volunteered to be sent on a
labor
Beautification course of the countryside
north-west of dresden.
And never seen again.
And never seen again.



Look under.
The cure was in no pill.
Had to look under the window sill.
The window sill.



Look under.
The cure was in no pill.
Had to look under the window sill.
The window sill.



From certain facts you have to go on and further
And often it is better to go around or look
under.
The windowsill


Etc..
Etc..
