The Hunting of the Snark movie - The Snooker Song lyrics

rate me

<br>

Then the Banker endorsed a blank cheque (which he crossed),<br>

And changed his loose silver for notes.<br>

The Baker with care combed his whiskers and hair,<br>

And shook the dust out of his coats.<br>

<br>

The maker of Bonnets ferociously planned<br>

A novel arrangement of bows;<br>

While the Billiard-marker with quivering hand<br>

Was chalking the tip of his nose.<br>

<br>

(Billiard Marker)<br>

It's only a game, so<br>

Put up a real good fight,<br>

I'm gonna be snookering you tonight.<br>

I'm famed for my aim, so<br>

Y'better believe I'm right,<br>

I'm gonna be snookering you,<br>

Snookering you tonight!<br>

<br>

I could spend days<br>

Gazing across the balze at you,<br>

You'll never win<br>

When I begin<br>

My break of fifty-eight<br>

(or maybe more, who can be sure?)<br>

<br>

To say it's a frame-up<br>

Wouldn't be fair or right,<br>

I'm gonna be snookering you tonight.<br>

Resist me in vain, but<br>

Victory's in my sight,<br>

I'm gonna be snookering you,<br>

Snookering you tonight!<br>

<br>

Love is a game<br>

Snooker's the same so join the queue,<br>

Ged a good grip<br>

Don't let it slip<br>

And think about the pink<br>

(Don't let a red go to your head!)<br>

<br>

It's only a game, so<br>

Put up a real good fight,<br>

I'm gonna be snookering you,<br>

Snookering you tonight!<br>

To say it's a frame-up<br>

Wouldn't be fair or right,<br>

I'm gonna be snookering you,<br>

Snookering you tonight!<br>

<br>

Love is a game<br>

Snooker's the same so join the queue,<br>

Ged a good grip<br>

Don't let it slip<br>

And think about the pink<br>

(Don't let a red go to your head!)<br>

<br>

It's only a game, so<br>

Put up a real good fight,<br>

I'm gonna be snookering you,<br>

Snookering you tonight!<br>

<br>

Snookering you, snookering you tonight!<br>

Snookering you, snookering you tonight!<br>

<br>
