Creme tangerine and montelimat
A ginger sling with a pineapple heart
A coffee dessert – yes you know it’s good news
But you’ll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy truffle.

Cool cherry cream and a nice apple tart
I feel your taste all the time we’re apart
Coconut fudge – really blows down those blues
But you’ll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy truffle.

You might not feel it now
But when the pain cuts through
You’re going to know and how
The sweat is going to fill your head
When it becomes too much
You’re going to shout aloud –
Creme tangerine.

You know that what you eat you are,
But what is sweet now, turns so sour –
We all know Obla-Di-Bla-Da
But can you show me, where you are?

Creme tangerine and montelimat
A ginger sling with a pineapple heart
A coffee dessert – yes you know its good news
But you’ll have to have them all pulled out
After the Savoy truffle.
