Doo-doo-doo, doo-oo-doo-doo

Well, I'm talking to a former engine driver (driver)
Trying to find out what he used to do
Tells me that he always kept his engine (engine)
Spit and polished up, as good as new
But he said his only great ambition
Was to work with lions in a zoo (oh, to work with lions in a zoo)
Yes, dear, you heard right
Told me his ambition was to work with lions every night

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Speak to the man on the beat
Can you imagine the first one you'd meet?

Doo-doo-doo, doo-oo-doo-doo

Well, I met a woman working as a waitress (waitress)
I asked exactly what it was she did
Said she worked the summer crowd at seasides (seasides)
Winter time she ran away and hid
Once she had a hollywood audition
But the part was given to a kid (yes, the part was given to a kid)
Yes, sir, you heard right
Hollywood ambition made a starlet grown up overnight

Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Oh... 

I know someone, an engine driver
I know someone who'd been a boxer
I know for sure, I know, I know, I know that they are super

Well, I bumped into a man who'd been a boxer (boxer)
Asked him what had been his greatest night
He looked into the corners of his memory (memory)
Searching for a picture of the fight
But he said he always had a feeling
That he lacked a little extra height (could have used a little extra height)
Yes, mate, you heard right
He always had a feeling that he might have lacked a little height.

Na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na

Look at the average person
Speak to the man in the queue
Can you imagine the first one is you?
Uh, uh, uh, uh

Doo-doo-doo, doo-oo-doo-doo
