Mike Batt - A Delicate Combination lyrics
rate meThe Beaver confessed, with affectionate looks<br />
More eloquent even than tears,<br />
It had learned in ten minutes far more than all books<br />
Would have taught it in seventy years.<br />
<br />
Such friends, as the Beaver and Butcher became,<br />
Have seldom if ever been known;<br />
In winter or summer 'twas always the same-<br />
You could never find either alone.<br />
<br />
And when quarrels arose- as one frequently finds<br />
Quarrels will spite of every endeavour-<br />
The song of the Jubjub recurred to their minds,<br />
And cemented their friendship for ever!<br />
<br />
(Butcher Beaver)<br />
Oh it's hard to believe we could end up friends,<br />
By a delicate combination<br />
(Butcher)<br />
Of fear of the dark,<br />
(Beaver)<br />
Belief in the Snark,<br />
(Both)<br />
And intelligent conversation.<br />
Who would have guessed on this windswept night,<br />
We would balance the whole equation?<br />
(Butcher)<br />
Who would have forseen, friendship between,<br />
(Beaver)<br />
Female Beaver<br />
(Butcher)<br />
And male caucasian?
