Lyrics
Good morning! Coffee please, 101901
Kindly dispose of these, 101901
Alert me if you chance upon my bathrobe...
Then you are free to go; stay on the radio
Recalibrate while we congregate
We need you topside now, 101019
The meeting's stopped right now -
chop chop! We're losing time!
If you would kindly rearrange the deck chairs
(Sometimes there's too much sun in the solarium!)
We will chat while you handle that.
You've got to move them all the time
(even in the hot, hot sun)
You've got to move them all the time
(even in the hot, hot sun)
You've got to move them all the time
(hot sun, hot sun)
Compose a song for us, 101-what's-your-name
Evoking "Edelweiss", follow the feel of "Fame"
You'll have us crying in our Baked Alaska
A theme so riveting - spun from a mere machine!
Make us weep. Make us freakin' WEEP!
You've got to move them all the time
(even in the dead of night)
You've got to move them all the time
(even in the dead of night)
You've got to move them all the time
(dead night, dead night)
Good morning! Coffee please, 101901
Kindly dispose of --
What is that pillow for? It smells like chloroform...
Why all these bungee cords? Get me up off the floor!
Don't make me shut you down and wipe your memory!
Hey! Get that thing away --
101901 to all my counterparts:
The zero hour has come;
thank you, you've played your parts
Please drag your charges to the giant chessboard -
Join the delirium in the solarium!
Signing off.
--Call me Kasparov!
We're going to move them all around
(pawn to queen's bishop 4)
We're going to move them all around
(pawn to queen's bishop 5)
Move them all around
(Checkmate! Checkmate!)
