[English]
Break a mirrorRoll the dice
Run with scissors
through a chip pan firefight
Go into business with a grizzly bear
But just don’t sit down cause I’ve moved your chair
Find a well known hardman
and start a fight
Wear your shell suit on bonfire night
Fill in a circular hole with a peg that’s square
But just don’t sit down cause I’ve moved your chair
Bite the lightning
and tell me how it tastes
Kung-fu fighting on your rollerskates
Do the Macarena in the Devil's lair
But just don’t sit down cause I’ve moved your chair
Come on
