‘Lectropositive Mama
(tune, Lady Madonna)
‘Letropositive mama,
Cesium on your meat,
Wonder how you manage,
To stay on your feet.
How d’ya stand the smokin’?
How d’ya ‘bide the flame?
Do you think that life’s just
A burnin’ game.
Monday night your hunger’s a blue fire,
Tuesday morn’ you’re cookin’ ‘fore the sun.
Wednesday raivn, you’re only flamin’ higher,
Having your fun.
‘Lectropositive mama,
Cinders in your curls,
No way can compare you,
To ordinary girls.
Likin’ the explosions,
Rock you on your seat.
How can any woman handle
All that heat?
